J.A.M. Summer Parades

Who doesn't love a parade? 
​We participate in a lot of summer parades.  All are welcome to ride the J.A.M. float as we promote our ecumenical youth program offered Wednesday nights and help us spread the awesome love of Jesus Christ.

Note:  The J.A.M. float is not scheduled for all events shown below. 
Please check directly with the church for the parade schedule J.A.M. participates in.
