PENTECOST CHILI COOK-OFF

On June 8, St. Dunstan's enjoyed a spirited Pentecost celebration. The dove kite soared through the sanctuary among festive red balloons.

This year's Tongue's of Fire Chili Cook-Off was a delicious addition to the day. This year's chili champion was Ben Keck! There were several "second place" winners who will surely spend the next year perfecting their recipes for the 2026 competition. Congratulations Ben!
