Cumberland Croppers GCPC Scrapbook Ministry
What is a scrapbook ministry?
Scrapbooking has become one of the newest and fastest growing crazes around the county. People gather together and work on their scrapbooks in a group setting. Our goal is to bring church members and members of the community that share the same interest of scrapbooking together for fellowship.
Why should I scrapbook?
You are providing for your family and friends a photo legacy, you are passing down family tradition, stories and a spiritual journey of your life and the live's of your ancestors. What will we do: scrapbook, devotional, eat, scrapbook, fellowship, scrapbook, snacks, scrapbook-get the picture?
