Thank You Good Sam guest and staff for allowing us the opportunity to serve. From the time of prayer, fellowship, and breaking bread together ... everything was a joy. We look forward to returning soon.

Such a great treat for all and thank you for serving our community. Truly enjoyed the brisket and fellowship with you.

Praise the lord
