June was a very busy month for CYF Ministries!

Picnic and Play started on Sundays after worship, the youth spent a week on a mission trip to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, our 1st-3rd graders spent a weekend at Wapo for SEEDS Camp and our youth (4th-12th graders) spent a week at Camp Wapo. It was a GREAT start to the summer!

Picnic & Play!

Following worship on summer Sundays (weather permitting), gather together by the playground outside. Bring your lunch and a blanket and we’ll have a picnic together!

Then stay for play… playground (for preschool only), yard games, chalk, bubbles, gaga ball, carpet ball and more! It will also be a great time for adult conversation.

All parents/guardians responsible for kids safety and supervision.

This Sunday's Picnic and Play (July 13th) will be a water day!!!

Bring your swimsuits/trunks, a towel, some sunscreen and get ready for a cool, fun time!

Slip n Slide, sensory tables, water blasters, freeze pop treats and more! The playground, bikes, sandbox, bubbles and all regular Picnic and Play items will still be available as well.

Meet at the playground following the 10:15am worship service for a fun water-filled hour with friends! ALL ages welcome!
