CHRISTIAN EDUCATION AND FAITH FORMATION MINISTRY |
|
Summer-- one of those things we cannot wait until it comes. Then, once here, we often complain when those lazy, hazy days are upon us and then we clamor for some cooling relief. Then it seems just as soon as summer gets here –&n it’s gone! And then the cycle starts over again. Well, summer has officially arrived! And we in the Christian Ed Ministry are already making plans to help provide you with some “relief” and also at the same time help build the Church. We are planning to continue one of the traditions of EACC, that of having the annual Vacation Bible School. We have held some preliminary conversations with Mt. Zion UCC to partner with them in having a joint Vacation Bible School this year. They are eager and excited to work with us on this project. The VBS session will be held starting on August 16th and ending on Saturday August 21st with a “Food For The Soul“ activity. But, for now, we can share that the VBS sessions would be scheduled from 6 PM to 8:30 PM, with a light meal served at 6:30. Unlike in the past, you may even attend study sessions scheduled for adults. This event promises to be a great opportunity for fellowship and for building HIS church as Euclid Ave and Mt. Zion take this walk in faith together! Who knows where this type of joint ministry may lead? Hopefully it leads to more interaction between us in the future. More details will be forthcoming For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. Matthew 18;20 Al Parks and Bob Henderson, Co-Chairs
