We've been soliciting feedback for our 2020 planning and here is what we have heard...
There is a preference for guided discussions around how to address faith questions with our kids and within our families.
The wisdom gained from group dialogue is valued.
Topics that include group discussion and resources for addressing tough topics are appreciated.
So, let's collaborate! Please send us your ideas!
The following prompts might help you generate additional great ideas for monthly discussion themes:
What bible stories feel difficult to discuss with your child(ren)?
Could you use a "refresher" lesson on any of the stories that have been taught in Sunday School?
What questions have your kids asked you that were really tough to answer?
What questions do you hope your kids don't ask because they will be hard to answer?
For parents with older kids - what do you know now, that you wish you would have known 5, 7, or 10 years ago?
Please send your thoughts and questions to lynne@haumc.org.
Youth Head to Chicago for 2020 Mission Trip
The 2020 youth mission trip will be headed to Chicago July 26-31. Students entering 8th-12th grade in fall of 2020 are invited to take part in this awesome week. We will be staying at the Historic First Church of the Brethren, a church with a long history of being a community leader on issues of social justice. The group will be doing a variety of projects throughout the week, serving with a variety of ministry partners.
The "Early Bird" cost of the trip is $340 for those who make a security deposit of at least $100 by Sunday February 2, 2020. Youth can still sign up to attend the trip after February 2, as long as space allows, however the total cost of the trip jumps to $375.
If you have additional questions about scholarship opportunities or any other topic, please email or ask me, Rick, in person. rick@haumc.org. Register for the trip by going to haumc.org/register.
Shake off the winter blahs! Get a babysitter and join other Hennepin parents and friends for drinks and lively conversation.
February 8 from 7-9pm at Royal Foundry Craft Spirits, 241 Fremont Ave. N, Minneapolis. There are food trucks outside and food can also be delivered!
