 When WFAA Channel 8 brought its “Family First Town Hall” to the
Sherman Municipal Ballroom, one of the citizens remarked, “We need something to bring
our community together.”
That was the genesis of “Great Days of Service”…a program of community
service held during the last week of June each year. Started as a partnership between
First United Methodist Church and First Baptist Church, now seven churches representing a
diverse part of the Christian community, as well as a number of community groups,
make up our work force.
During “Great Days of Service,” what unites
us as a community is more powerful than what divides us. The Sherman community truly makes
these “days” great..
