Because Presbyterians celebrate the year in Christian Education

At Westminster Presbyterian Church in Austin, they celebrated the end of another great year in Christian Education for all ages.

Throughout the Presbytery, churches are celebrating Senior Sundays/Graduations, Confirmation parties, Christian Education, and more. See more pictures on our Instagram feed at: https://www.instagram.com/missionpby/

In today's previous version of the newsletter, we inserted the wrong date on the Stated Presbytery Meeting graphic. We want to see everyone on June 20-21! Not July 20-21. Thank you for extending grace to us!

For the June 20-21, 2025 Presbytery meeting, child care will be offered at St. Mark's Presbyterian Church, Boerne. We must know the name/s and age of children by Thursday, June 12 in order to provide quality child care for infants and pre-schoolers.  Child care will be available from 1:30-6:00 on Friday, and 8:30-Noon on Saturday.  Register at the link below.

Service Opportunity at Presbytery Meeting

The Serve Committee invites you all to participate in a special service opportunity at St. Mark in Boerne prior to the June Presbytery meeting. We will work together to package meals for Rise Against Hunger. Register below -- all are welcome! You don't have to be attending the Presbytery meeting to join in the event. 

Chaplains Needed in June at JKR

Chaplains needed June 9-13 and June 18-20

Do you want to volunteer a week of your summer living in the beautiful Texas Hill Country helping kids grow their spirituality and self-awareness? If so, this role is for you!

Chaplains usually serve a week at a time, living at John Knox Ranch, leading 45 min chaplain time sessions with small groups a couple of times per day. The rest of the time you can join resident camp activities, rest and relax, take day trips into Wimberley and the surrounding area, write all of next year's sermons, or all of the above. Meals and lodging are included. Curriculum is provided based on the summer camp theme, to which you will bring your own gifts, talents, ideas, and interpretation.

Chaplains do not need to be ordained but do need some experience working with young people in the church. Feel free to forward this to anyone who you think would be great!
