The Sweet Taste of Love INC

By Darnise B. Lambert

We are back by demand and sweeter the second time around. All are welcome to our second annual fundraiser for, Taste of Love INC Saturday, July 12th, 2014, at Faith Christian Reformed Church, 8383 W. 171st St in Tinley Park, IL, from 4 pm to 7 pm. Love INC affiliated churches will join together for fun and unveil some sweet surprises. The event last year was a crowd favorite, this year we are making a mark to be even better. The Taste this year will be similar to an old-fashioned church social with a pie bake-off, a pie eating contest, and a pie auction.   Several local pastors and public officials will be donating their culinary talents as well.  In addition, we will have a silent auction to bid a variety of treasures including tickets to Cubs, Sox, Bears, Bulls, gift certificates to local eateries, handmade items, and more. This year we will keep the event moving with a DJ, and some activities that kids enjoy such as; a hula hoop contest, two-legged race, egg and spoon race and face painting.  A crowd favorite returning again this year will be the unique display of “classic cars”. The classic car event is also offering vintage car rides, what a fun way to ride in style. We will also have an array of vendors to further delight your taste palates with hotdogs, chips, and soda to round out the menu.    

     The fundraiser this year offers an entertaining variety of activities with something for everyone.  This is a community event that unites families and neighbors for a day of fun and food.
