AZED101 PRESENTATION
Led by a non-partisan volunteer group of parents committed to improving Arizona's education funding, AZED101 realized that to change the status quo, we had to understand the situation, created a presentation to share with friends and neighbors, who were shocked at how our schools are funded. You will be, too. Join us for the presentation on Thursday, September 27 at 7:00pm in the Adult Room.
TIME TO WONDER RETURNS
Do you come to the middle of the week and wonder how the days have passed so quickly? Do you sometimes yearn for some quiet time in the midst of your busy schedule? Do you seek to renew the sense of awe and wonder in your life? Time to Wonder will begin again on Thursday, September 27th from 7-8 p.m. in the Library. During this time of spiritual growth we engage in different practices of prayer such as Lectio Divina, The Examen, Journaling and simply being in silence. And there is always time for sharing. Join us!!
ANNUAL CHURCH CONFERENCE
Join us on Saturday, September 29, at 6:00pm for our annual Celebration of Ministry and Potluck. Everyone is invited to participate in this year’s Church Conference review with our District Superintendent. Please pick up a (free) ticket for the potluck at the table in the Fellowship Hall on Sunday.
