June 6th is our Education Celebration and Sunday School Recognition Sunday. Join us to recognize the efforts of both teachers and students in this past year.
Summer Camp information is available -- contact Pastor Nicole or Jed for details.
Summer Phase of Sunday School
As we move into a summer schedule, the following support for children will be available beginning in June and continuing through August:
- Children who are 5 years old or younger will be able to participate in a supervised activity during worship. In addition to our nursery attendant, a rotation of volunteer parents will offer activities.
- Children older than 5 will have activity packets as they stay with families during worship.
Over the summer, we will be giving the downstairs Sunday School classroom in the Round Top a facelift.
Pawsox Game: Join us for a group outing at McCoy Stadium for the Pawsox and get a chance to run the bases after the game! Date & time TBA!
2010 Youth Sunday: a Home Run! On May 16, twenty children participated in our annual Youth Sunday - not only did we use all of our Youth Choir robe - we ran out of them! That's good news! Thanks to all our Sunday School kids and to our teachers and parents, Susan, Jed, Pat and Gwen. A DVD of the day is in production!
Ready for another bike ride this summer? Watch for news about another opportunity to get some exercise AND an ice cream - with great company along the way!Our Sunday School is growing, and so is our need for new teachers. Interested volunteers should contact Rev. Jed Griswold, Beneficent's Minister of Education.
