This Week in Children's and Youth Ministries

THE WEEK OF 10/12

A Note From Tabi

Hi families!

I hope everyone had a lovely Fall Break! I kicked mine off at the Day School’s Fall Festival, which was such a fun evening. I love Day School events like that because I get to see some of my older Day School friends come back for a visit, and usually I get a big hug or two along the way. It’s always so sweet to see them again!

This weekend kicks off our Halloween festivities at Saint Anne’s!

POLO, our Parents of Little Ones group, will meet Saturday at 11:00am in the Youth Center. We’re going to make some of our own Halloween costumes, so come ready to get creative!

Then on Sunday, we’ll have our second Bridge gathering for our 3rd–5th graders. We’ll be painting and decorating pumpkins, so it’s BYOP: Bring Your Own Pumpkin! I can already tell this one might get a little messy, which usually means we’re doing it right.

All of this is leading up to the big event: Trunk or Treat on Sunday, October 25 at 4:00pm!

At the moment, I’m feeling pretty confident about taking home the Best Trunk trophy again this year…mostly because we currently only have ONE trunk signed up. While I do love winning, I’d prefer a little competition! So I invite you to “be our guest” that afternoon and join in the fun. Consider that your first hint about my trunk theme this year.

Hosting a trunk is easy: decorate your car, bring some candy, and enjoy an afternoon with our Saint Anne’s, Day School, and neighborhood families. You can sign up using the link below.

As always, if you have any questions about our events or would like to help out, feel free to reach out.

See y’all Sunday!

Blessings,

Tabi ✨

How can your family use this calendar?

Here is a tip from the Tyler Family:

"Subscribe to the calendar…turn it on every so often to show all the events you added…copy/add the events that are relevant to our family calendar…and uncheck to hide your calendar again.

This makes it so easy to add the events you created AND hide events that aren’t relevant to our family."

EYC

EYC will meet this week from 5pm-7pm in the Youth Center. This week, we are decorating pumpkins so: BYOP (Bring your own pumpkin).

This week in Youth Formation, we're talking about the pressure to succeed and the feeling that our worth comes from our grades, achievements, activities, and accomplishments. In a culture that constantly asks, "What have you done?" we'll explore what it means to remember that God loves us for who we are, not what we achieve. We'll discuss perfectionism, expectations, and how to find our identity in Christ instead of our accomplishments.
