Pentecost: June 5
Join us for a festive Pentecost celebration as we rejoice in God's presence in our lives through the Spirit. We will have a joyous children's procession, the launch of a new children's sermon at the 10:00 am service, and a strawberry shortcake reception to follow. Church School children should meet Bryn and the teachers by the tower door at 9:55 am for the Pentecost procession. We will then proceed to the Bishop Garden for Church School. We hope you can join us for this wonderful festive day as we close our program year. |

Help with the Rawan Family: "Preschool" Time
The Rawan family, whom we helping to resettle in Arlington after fleeing Afghanistan last year, has three little children not yet in school. We are helping them get ready for these new experiences by spending some time in their home, reading and coloring and playing, like a little "preschool homeschool." We also take them on walks to their local library, to look at books or join other children in Storytime. If you are interested in helping with our "preschool homeschool" efforts, please contact Bryn. It is very fun and very rewarding! (All volunteers must complete a full background check through WIRP.) |

Families, the Parish Weekend Away Registration is Now Open
Our all-parish Weekend Away (aka retreat) is September 23-25, 2022. This two-night getaway will be at the Barbara C. Harris Camp & Retreat Center in New Hampshire, about a 90 minute drive from Winchester. We'll have games, hikes, canoeing, camp fires, and more. This retreat will be fun and meaningful for our littlest children and parents. The overnight reservations currently have a waitlist, but we're working on securing more rooms and cabins for our group. Please register to let us know you want to come! We also have registration for Saturday or Sunday. It is a great chance to connect, deepen community ties, enjoy nature, and play. More information can be found HERE. |
