What's New?
July 2nd Whole Church Vacation Bible School (VBS) was Picnictastic
Families, young children, old children, young adults, and wise adults gathered Wednesday evening on July 2nd to enjoy a delicious meal, learn more about Holy Communion, and play picnic games such as ring toss and sack races.
It was a nice breezy night with plenty of shade. Many enjoyed the delicious pulled pork sandwiches and scrumptious desserts. The adults discussed the Theology of Holy Communion while the children baked communion bread which we all shared prior to our closing prayer. The most entertaining picnic game of the night was donut on a string (yummy).

Topic for Sunday, July 6th: Quaker-style Parenting for Our Time
We were drawn to a recent article on the subject by a woman who was raised in a Quaker tradition. Whether you are a parent, grandparent, other relative, friend, teacher or mentor of a child or young disciple of Christ, the principles she outlines in the piece will be useful to you.
Join us on Sundays, at 9 A.M. in room 106 on the first floor.
