2006 Anniversary Event
Our anniversary celebration was a memorable event.  We had over 200 people attend this event on October 10 and we had an absolutely GREAT time! 

The picture at left is of the lighting of 66 candles which represented our 66 member congregations.  It was really impressive to see all 66 candles lit at once!  

The picture at right is Emmett Forbes, who was involved with IOA when it was a program of Kum Ba Yah (predecessor to IOA).  He came from Virginia Beach for the celebration!  

Celebrating 25 Years of
"Faith at Work"

 Shown at right is Sue Gold, who served as our mistress of ceremonies.  The event included a history presentation outlining the development of IOA, an update on where IOA is going and a reception where folks had a chance to reminisce.  For the complete program, including IOA's history, see the event program by clicking the link at left.
