First this week, a video. In the Greater Things Thursday last week, I told you about what we do at Lebanon Road for our Senior reception. One part of that is a video put together by one of our members, Mike Markwood. He always does a great job, and the videos are first-rate. I though you might enjoy seeing what he does.
