As our Hennepin community explores what it means to strengthen our Spiritual CORE (Centered, Open, Receptive, Engaged), we will post weekly thoughts on what it means to have a strong CORE as a family.
Intentional Faith Development - "Focused learning opens the spiritual world to us and stimulates attentiveness that helps us see soul and grace we might never have noticed...(p.75)
Providing tools for families to nurture the faith development of their children is the cornerstone of our Hennepin Kids for LYFE ministry. Coming up on October 14th, we will present bibles to our 3 year olds and our third graders. Later that morning, we will kick off our 2018-2019 Parenting for LYFE series. Our topic is, "Reading with Our Kids". Join us for these opportunities to connect with other parents to nurture yourselves and add tools to your family faith development toolbox!

Trunk or Treat
New For This Year - "Costume Closet"
Do you have old costumes at home that no longer fit you or your kids? Why not donate them for Trunk or Treat? Along with trunks full of treats, the Youth Spooky Labs, Halloween crafts, hot cocoa, and face painting, we would like to offer a rack of costumes for our neighbors who may not have one of their own. Just bring in your gently used, clean costumes, and leave them in the designated bin in the East Entry. Our volunteers will hang them and be on-hand during Trunk-or-Treat to help our neighbors find a great costume to help them enjoy the fun!
