Mission Oak Cliff Kick-Off to Summer
Kick-off to Summer 2025: A Celebration of Unity and Community
Welcome the summer of 2025 with warmth and camaraderie at our special event, "Kick off to Summer 2025." This event isn't just about welcoming the sun-soaked days ahead; it's also about building bridges of understanding and compassion within our community.
Set in our church parking lot, this event turns a simple summer lunch into a heartwarming experience. Enjoy the classic summer staples of sizzling hot dogs, scrumptious hamburgers, and thirst-quenching drinks, all under the radiant summer sun.
The true heart of this event lies in the fellowship. Our Mission Oak Cliff and Cliff Temple staff are excited to sit, eat, and engage with our cherished clients. This is more than just a meal - a chance to share stories, laughter, and friendship, turning our parking lot into a space of unity and community.
Kick-off to Summer 2025 is more than just the start of a season—it's a celebration of our shared humanity. So, come join us as we welcome the summer not just with delicious food but also with open hearts and an embracing community spirit.
