During the final Sunday School Cycle this Spring (April 14th, 21st, and 28th and May 5th, 12th, and 19th)) all rising 7th graders are invited to join Pastor Kelsey for Confirmation Kickstart during the Education hour on Sunday mornings (10:05-10:50a.m.)! We will get a head start on all things Confirmation, bond as a group, start exploring our Confirmation Bibles, and talk about what the next two years together will look like! On May 19th we are inviting parents to join their students for the education hour to hear more about the program! If you have questions, please email Pastor Kelsey.
Sundays, April 7 - May 19 at 7:00 p.m. at the Fraedrich’s House
The Adult Study Group is back this spring reading Do I Stay Christian? by Brian McLaren. This is an unflinching look at what the church has gotten wrong and gotten right through history into present day. The point is not to convince anyone one way or the other, but to consider how do we become more human (whether we stay Christian or not) and how to live into the example set by Jesus Christ. The group is led by David Lewis and Craig Fraedrich can answer any questions. RSVP to attend and get the Fraedrich’s address. This group loves to welcome new members, so give it a try!

Mainly Music is geared for children birth through pre-K and their parent or caregiver. It is a chance for grownups and their kids to interact with one another and others through songs and movement. Each week we will have a 30-minute music session followed by a time for snack, free play and making new friends.
This is a community outreach event, so spread the word widely and let people know that all are welcome. There is a $5/week suggested donation at the door. There is no advanced registration or commitments, so come when you can and don’t stress when you cannot.
Questions? Reach out to our Children & Family Minister, Michaela Putnam-Kwon.
