ORUCC Youth 6/2
Hello friends, it is June already, and that means the end of our 2023-2024 programming year! This Sunday we will celebrate with one last “Breakfast Club” gathering with Pastor Kate at 9:00 a.m. in Friendship Hall (come for some donuts!). TRU Function gathers for rehearsal at 8:30 a.m.
At 10:00 a.m. all youth are invited to come to worship to recognize and celebrate our Children and Youth ministry volunteers, cheer on TRU Function, and bless our graduating seniors.
Immediately following the service we will celebrate with Ice Cream Sundaes for all outside on the lawn!
Special invitation: if any youth are up for helping scoop and serve ice cream, the Ministry of Congregational Life welcomes your help!! Please let me know if this is something you could help with.
Looking ahead:
- June 16: Freecycle Event at church! Jill Westberg and the Care of Creation Team wonder if any youth could help with this event. Freecycle invites folks to bring gently used items to church to be exchanged (anything leftover will be donated). They are looking for volunteers to set up and pack up items. If you would like to help out to volunteer with this event, please contact Jill: [email protected]
Happy (almost) summer!
Grace and peace,
Kate
