By: Photos and content by Pastor Rick Craig

For several years members of the congregation at Rolla UMC have participated in an outreach ministry to the Parkview Apartments, an assisted living facility in Rolla, North Dakota. Each year Rolla UMC provides a pizza party and sing-a-long in the dining room of the facility.

Rolla UMC purchases pizza from and local pizzeria which is then served to the residents by members of the Rolla UMC congregation. Pizza is served along with desserts which are also provided by Rolla UMC members.

After the meal, Rolla UMC musicians and area volunteers lead the residents in singing Christmas songs. This event has become something that Rolla UMC and the residents of Parkview look forward to each year. Rolla UMC has a membership of around 50.
