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.
A Fourth of July Experiment
We often take time on the July 4th holiday to pray for our country and its leaders. This year, we invite you to deepen this tradition and add some scientific inquiry to your reflection by making your own fireworks – no matches needed.
Top Five/Bottom Five
Summer is a great time for road trips, air travel, or just spending time together at home. Make the most of it with a new game, Top Five/Bottom Five!
From Exodus to Emancipation
This week brings Father’s Day as well as Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day. After you’re done expressing gratitude to the father figures in your life, take some time to connect to, and celebrate, the official end of slavery in the United States.
A Time of Transitions
So much is changing! Today we celebrated graduation Sunday AND Pastor Anthony’s time at Desert Mission. In this time of transition, take some time to reflect on and celebrate the past, the present, and the future by playing a brand-new game!
Mother’s Day Joy!
Not only does food provide nutrients, it can also be a source of joy. Sometimes the joy comes from the food itself, but often it’s due to the memories associated with a specific dish or meal, memories that connect us with those we love.
