Youth Activities from Heather

Power-Up Sunday Children and Youth worship and SKA (Sunday Kool Activities), is held in the Trillium Auditorium 10:30-11:45. (Please watch for any unforeseen changes on our website and in our weekly eBlasts and eNews)
 
 
Children and Youth are asked to sign in upstairs before entering the hall, masks must be worn, and safe distancing is to be followed. 
If God wanted to show you something in a dream, what might it be? In the Bible story today, God showed a man called Peter something that changed him. In the dream, God said that a stranger was going to visit Peter and that he should go with that man to meet the man’s friends. God wanted Peter to encourage them and to welcome them. God wanted Peter to understand tell that we do not choose who to love. We must love everyone, even people who are different than we are.
Peter Visits Cornelius
Peter's vision of a sheet with animals teaches him that God does not show favoritism. Everyone who chooses to follow Jesus is welcomed into God's family. Peter visits Cornelius. Cornelius and his family choose to follow Jesus.
Acts 11:1-18
New Living Translation
Peter Explains His Actions
11 Soon the news reached the apostles and other believers in Judea that the Gentiles had received the word of God. 2 But when Peter arrived back in Jerusalem, the Jewish believers criticized him. 3 “You entered the home of Gentiles and even ate with them!” they said.

On Sunday, May 1st we launched The Blend ‘G’ Project (the G stands for generations). The goal of this project is to create an opportunity for different generations to connect and share insights into their personal faith and life experiences.

This is a pilot project that will begin with pairing 4 youth with 4 adults. We hope to continue the project in the fall with more adults and young people making new and meaningful connections.
Nursery Volunteers Needed
The Children and Youth Ministry is re-opening the Church Nursery. We need volunteers to be in place before we can advertise that we have a “supervised nursery”.
If you would like to be volunteer, please contact Heather at heathermargerisontrillium@gmail.com
Tutors Needed
Many of our Trillium children and youth need periodic help with their school work.
 
If you can give an hour or two of your time to tutor, please contact Tracy Sullivan at tracyp73ca@yahoo.com.
