According to tradition, friends and descendants of Pennytown will once again gather to share food, fellowship, and worship on the first Sunday of August.
Please join us on August 7th for our annual celebration of family, community, and heritage. This year’s special guest and speaker will be Bro. Larry McCall of the First Baptist Church of Webster Groves, Mo.
Festivities will begin at the Pennytown Freewill Baptist Church, located just off of Highway 65 between Marshall and the 1-70 junction (see “Directions” tab above). Services will begin at the church at 11:00 am.
Then join us for a delicious meal ($5.00 donation) and fellowship at 12:30 at Martin Community Center (1985 S. Odell, Marshall, Mo).
This event is open to the public and all are invited. Descendants and friends of Pennytown will be honored to welcome any and all to join us!
