September Is Here!
I have a friend who shared in her social media post, “And just like that, September is here!” Yep, just like that. I wish September brought with it an end to Covid, but it does not. We continue this journey and continue to pray for our healthcare workers, our schools, our church, and we continue our commitment to stay safe, stay connected, and serve the vulnerable. September may not be bringing an end to Covid, but football has begun, pumpkin everything will soon be in abundance, and hopefully, we will see cooler temperatures soon.
We want to join in on the fun as a church family. We have planned some safe ways to gather Wednesday evenings this month and hope you will join us when able. In discussions around Wednesday evening, we have discerned two things important to those who love Wednesday evening meals. Wednesday night provides fellowship and a time for those of different ages to connect. Our Wednesday evening gatherings will begin September 15 and each week will alternate between age group ministry opportunities and a time of intergenerational “Table Talk” following dinner. We will provide all you need for the Table Talk time. It will be a perfect way to connect across the ages with your Parkway Hills family. Wednesday night will look a little different for our youth as well. Instead of going to the youth room for a third lesson of the week, on the nights we break into age group ministries, the youth will have various opportunities around our community. See below for a full schedule.
Due to the current heightened risk of being indoors, unmasked, we will eat outside at 5:45, and it will be a bring your own brown bag dinner. We will reevaluate this at the end of September. Drinks and dessert will be provided. Tables will be set up, but we hope you will throw a chair in your car as this will aid us in making setup/cleanup simple and smooth each week.
Mark these dates and hope to see you Wednesday Nights this Fall!
