Escalon’s Presbyterian Church on First Street is growing … so much so that it has basically outgrown its current ‘footprint’ and has to expand. Congregation members and church leaders gathered on Sunday for a groundbreaking ceremony to officially get that expansion underway. With Pastor Troy Onsager and members of the planning/building Forward in Faith team offering some remarks, the children’s choir performing songs and a drone flying overhead to record a bird’s eye view of the festivities, the congregation celebrated turning the first shovels full of dirt.
