The Seguin congregation’s submission to the Guadalupe County Fair garnered them the “Grand Champion” award! It wasn’t for a bull or a pig or even for a baked pie!

The Seguin Ward’s Preparedness Float

Wanting to raise awareness on emergency preparation and family history, the Seguin congregation participated in the Guadalupe County Fair this weekend. Their goal was to get folks thinking about their level of preparedness and how to plan for emergencies. They also wanted to help people know where to begin to start doing their family history and discover the joy of learning more about their family tree.

The Seguin congregation built floats and had booths at the County Fair. Their float “Seguin Ward Family History Tree” won the Grand Champion Float for 2022! Their booths were both well attended.
