PARAGOULD, AR - Dozens of people got a birds' eye view of Greene County Saturday and donated money to the Pilots for Christ International. The group gives patients and immediate family members emergency medical trips throughout the year. Money raised at the fly-in helps the group pay for fuel. 

For $20, passengers got a 10 to 15 minute plane ride. This is the fourth year the group has hosted the fundraiser at Kirk Field in Paragould. Four planes from around the area were used. For a number of passengers, it was a chance to mark off a small plane ride on their bucket list.

Living to Go Church in Paragould will celebrate its second anniversary this Sunday, May 19, with a bar-be-cue picnic.

Located at 3607 Reynolds Park Road, there will be plenty of fun for the entire family, including bouncy houses.

The picnic will begin immediately following church services at noon and will last until 3 p.m.

“If you have never attended a service at Living to Go, this is the perfect opportunity,” Pastor Chad Randall said in an email to Your Region 8.  “It’s going to be a fun day.”
