Wesley Chapel United Methodist Church in Pino will host a community breakfast on Saturday, Aug, 19 from 6:30-10 a.m. The menu will include country ham, sausage, scrambled eggs, grits, red-eye gravy, sawmill gravy, made from scratch biscuits, baked apples, jelly, coffee and juice. Wesley Chapel is three miles west of Farmington, just off of NC 801 North on Pino Road.

In addition to breakfast, there will be a big bake sale, a yard sale, and a silent auction on the same day. The yard sale, bake sale and the silent auction hours will be from 7 a.m.-2 p.m.  You might find a special treasure and you will be helping a special lady who now needs your help.

Proceeds will go to help a lady who has had to have an operation but who has no health insurance. She is a hardworking, lovely lady who now needs our help.  Please come to Wesley Chapel, have breakfast, and then buy treasures from the yard sale and delicious baked items for your weekend meals.  People can rent a space at the yard sale for $15. Also, take part in the silent auction. Even if you can’t come to breakfast, please come and support other activities so we can help our neighbor.
