Time Out for Parents

28 Sep

“Time Out” for Parents – YAY!! You did it!

The children are settled in Sunday School and the rush is over!

Would you like a moment to catch your breath and enjoy a cup of coffee or tea in the company of other adults?
Do you have a question or concern about your child?
You don’t feel confident in fostering their spiritual growth?
Need someone to talk to or have a prayer request?

Then we’d like to see you at “Time Out” for Parents.

Look for us in the downstairs kitchen near the Nursery on Sunday mornings, 9:15-10:30 a.m.

Beginning THIS SUNDAY, September 29th

Hosted by Grow in God Cluster
