Community Church of Barrington Holds Chili Cook Off

Chili cooks still welcome to enter.

The Community Church of Barrington Chili Cook Off will be on Friday, April 19th from 5 - 7:30pm.   This event is open to the public!

Eat in, or take home chili from 5 to 7:30 p.m. Advance orders will be taken. The price of $10 includes cornbread, bowl of chili, toppings, bottle of water and a desert.  

All proceeds benefit the CCB Youth Summer Mission Trips.  Dr. Samira El Yasir has created an amazing trip for youth this year.  

Red Bird Mission and Clinic have been providing ministries in this region of the Appalachian Mountains since 1921. Today the need remains critical in this isolated, rural distressed area. Chronic poverty, lack of jobs, poor housing, and rugged mountainous terrain provide obstacles to a fuller life for the residents of this area. Red Bird Mission and Clinic strives to meet these needs through ministry in five areas: Education, Health and Wellness, Community Outreach, Economic Opportunity, and Community Housing Improvement. 

CCB members will be doing all sorts of outreach as well as housing improvements. 

Chili makers are still needed. Please contact Cindy Alton at cindyalton@comcast.net if you would like to be entered into the Chili Cook Off. Prize will be awarded for the best chili!
