Get Together
Thun Champassak will share about his family’s exhibit at the Holland Museum, featuring photos and insights into the displays—including meaningful connections to Harderwyk Church. Thun will also introduce a new research project exploring Lao immigration in the Holland/Zeeland area, beginning with his family’s story of arriving in 1979 through the CRC and Harderwyk. The presentation will last about 30 minutes, with time for questions and discussion to follow. A Nacho Bar meal will be served afterward—come learn, connect, and enjoy time together! Sign up by emailing Christine MacDonald is appreciated but not necessary.
We are a fun loving, welcoming group of 60+ers who love to Get Together around food and fun. Sometimes we plan activities and sometimes we just enjoy food. Sometimes we are outside and sometimes we are inside. Our group is informal and loves to meet new folks.
