Description
Mark Lowry is coming to Dunn for a concert at Central Baptist Church in Dunn on Friday, July 15th at 7pm as a benefit for the adoption of Isaac from China to the Darren and Margie Hughes family. The concert will also include Butler, Hughes & Hayes of which Darren Hughes is also a member and one of the pastors at Central Baptist.
The Hughes’ adopted their daughter, Sophia, from China in 2011 and plan to travel to China again in August to bring home 1 year old Isaac. The number of orphans in China is the largest in the world at nearly 1 million. With international adoption expenses being so great, their friends and family are coming together through a barbeque plate sale, also on July 15th, from 11am to 7pm at Central Baptist Church. The plates are $8 per plate and will include eat in or take out options. Tickets are available from friends and family of the Hughes’ or at butlerhughesandhayes.com.
