Community Spring Festival & Potluck

 
 

Come celebrate Spring with us!

Come celebrate Spring with us! During this combined Worship/CRE event we will have the following fun events planned:

A short meditation.

Let’s take a moment to bless and celebrate our Still Spring Park.

Planting a community garden!

We are planting two raised bed gardens. Nathanael R. will be making the beds. Join us during the Spring Festival to get them installed and plant some seedlings. This will be a fun multigenerational event!

Plus we’ll have garden related crafts & activities.
