Our NEW SUNDAY SCHOOLHOUSE is coming together!

Thanks to Sherry & Kevin Kittelsen, Hank Prussing, our middle school boys, and everyone who is helping with the basement renovation!

THE GATHERING ROOM/ Brick room will be a performance space for Sunday mornings to feature youth talent, explore cool themes, watch & discuss videos, and try out student ideas (new and untried?) for church in our times! 

THE TWO BREAKOUT ROOMS:  One for our HANDS and one for our HEADS.       Hands-on work with crafts, sewing, painting, constructing, or learning a skill.  

Head-work (& Heart-work) through discussion, internet research, you-tube videos, debate, what-ifs, drama, dance, and yoga. 

GODLY PLAY ROOM and the NURSERY are also being remodeled.  

AND ALL THESE ROOMS should be ready by Apple Fest!

 AppleFest is September 19th

Fall is on its way and, with it, our biggest fundraiser of the year. The Connections Committee is busy at work planning our 4th AppleFest. We will have some of the attractions that have made our event bigger every year... creative crafters and vendors, an elaborate bake sale and a lunch station with out-of-this-world chili and soups. Our very popular tag sale will start earlier this year for early-bird shoppers, and of course our famous cheese bread, baked by First Church men-and-friends is always a highlight. New this year will be raffled-off themed gift baskets that we hope everyone will help with. Please sign up on the volunteer list outside of Cook Hall if you can lend a hand. Contact anyone on Connections if you have questions.
