Licking Pentecostal Holiness Church hosted their annual Chili & Dessert Cook Off Friday evening at their Fellowship Hall. Tables were full this year as church and community members enjoyed their fill of the delicious chilis and desserts.
There was something for everyone, spicy to mild, even chicken chili. Cakes, cobblers, puddings and more filled the dessert table.
Tia Dickerson-Baker, Jim Thompson and George Snelling, Jr., were the fearless judges faced with the daunting (?) task of tasting all the chilis and desserts to choose the winners.

The Men’s Ministry awarded prizes for the best chili. Patty Gambill earned first place, followed by Tammy McConnell in second and Loretta Karnes in third.
It was a fun evening for all as they enjoyed the fellowship, friendly competition, and delicious food.
