The Lifespan Programs Team is excited to promote a monthly series of family centred events for building community, friendships, skills, and fun. Monthly themes revolve around connections, skill sharing, holidays, rest, and silliness.
September 27th, 5:00-8:00 pm (RSVP), is our first dinner – we are forming new Covenant Groups for the year, and connecting with folks who have been meeting together for years to share tips on making a lasting small group. Many years past have seen families connect in groups of 2-4, meeting once a month for a meal or playtime. People have formed groups around shared identity or shared interest in a subject or with the simple goal of exploring and deepening spirituality. What will this year bring?
Who should plan to come next Saturday?
- Members of current covenant groups willing to share their experience and wisdom
- Families of all varieties and ages – however you define family
- Leaders or members of current covenant groups/identity groups that are open to new members
- Anyone who would like to join or form a small group this year
- People who have taken the small group facilitator training and could co-lead a new group
What should I bring?
Please bring a side dish, dessert, or bread if you’re able. We will have a couple large pots of soup for our tummies and souls.
