United Methodist Church of Olney to Hold Harvest Festival

For decades, Harvest Festival has provided thousands of dollars for missions on the local, state, national, and international levels. Proceeds have been awarded to everything from our church food pantry, House of Mercy, Glen Lake Camp scholarships, children’s ministry, financial support for missionaries serving other countries, water wells in Kenya, Olney Senior Cub Center, The Refuge, and our church benevolent fund. This year, our benevolent fund has provided eye exams and glasses, if needed, for 15 adults in our community. We hope to continue that ministry, as well as all the others. Harvest Festival is our version of Texoma Gives.
