This past Sunday was the first meeting of First Sundays! The kitchen was occupied so we (a total of five, including two adults) ate ice cream sundaes for lunch--which we decided was one of the greatest meals for lunch. We shared our "meal," reflected on worship, and prayed about what is current in our lives.
If you missed it, fear not. We will meet again on April 3, May 1, and June 5. First Sundays is when high school and confirmed youth are invited to the Rose Room during Coffee Hour to make a small meal and enjoy each others fellowship.
E-mail Michael Isaacs with any questions.
