WILLIAMS — Several members of the community joined the First Baptist Church of Williams in dedicating their Dream Acres park after services Sunday. The focus was the opening of the Edith Pouquette Prayer Garden. The Garden was dedicated to a member of the First Baptist Church in honor of her long service to God. Dream Acres is a park built by the First Baptist Church and open to the public. Dogs on a leash are welcome.
A crowd gathered to watch Edith Pouquette cut the ribbon to the Prayer Garden. Pastor Joe Oswald held a prayer service afterward to complete the dedication of the Garden.
Dream Acres has a Gospel Golf disc course. There is a hiking trail with stations along the way where hikers can participate in sports activities.
