Community Connection
“Family Time” is now Community Connection! While the name has changed, the focus has not: these activities, offered by our Children’s Education Director, are designed to help families remain connected to their faith, community and each other.
Each week, a new activity is introduced during Sunday worship and then posted below. Also, don’t forget to follow Community Connection on Facebook and Instagram.
Make a Mind Jar
We have entered the season of Lent, a time of reflection and prayer. What better time for a mindfulness activity to help settle your mind and focus in on what’s in your heart?
Mardi Gras!
Mardi Gras has a reputation as one big party – which it is – but it is also a day to prepare for the sacrifice and solemnity of Lent. In the spirit of today’s fabulous Mardi Gras-themed pot luck, celebrate its traditions while also honoring their true meaning.
Presidents’ Day Your Way
Presidents’ Day is tomorrow, and it’s more than appliance sales and a day off from work and school. This year, dig deeper into the spirit of the day by connecting with the history of the American presidency – trust us, it’ll be interesting!
Games for the Big Game
It’s Super Bowl Sunday! While not all of us are equally invested in the outcome of the game (or even in the idea of watching the game in the first place), it’s a great opportunity to spend time together as a family – and there are lots of ways to keep everyone engaged, even if it’s only partially related to what’s happening on the field. Here are some games you can play during the big game:
Love You Hearts
Valentine’s Day isn’t for another week or so, but it’s already on our minds, so we wanted to get you started on an activity that you can begin right now! To get in the spirit, we’ll start with some of the complicated history behind Valentine’s Day.
