Micro Church: Sunday, November 8

 

micro church

You’re invited to worship at a Micro Church on Sunday, October 4.

What’s a Micro Church?

You sign up to participate at one of three locations.  The micro church gathers for a short worship service then engages in an activity together.

What are the activities?

  • There are three Micro Churches.
    • Bike Church
    • Nature Walk Church
    • Art Church

What do I need to do?

Can you explain more about what each Micro Church does and what I need to participate?

  • Bike Church

Meets at the Prairie Sunset Trailhead and city park in Goddard, at the crossroads of N Main and E Santa Fe.

Meet in the Pavilion for worship.  You must bring your own bicycle.  After worship the group leaders will break the group into subgroups based on desired cycling distance and ability.

  • Nature Walk Church

Meets at the outdoor pavilion at the Great Plains Nature Center, 6232 East 29th St N.

Meet in the pavilion for worship.  Wear shoes that are good for walking.  After worship the group leaders break the group into subgroups based on desired walking distance.

  • Art Church

Meets in the Grace Presbyterian Great Room.  This group paints rocks for the ICT Area Rocks project.

I don’t want to do a Micro Church.  What can I do?

There is a worship service at 11 am in the Grace Sanctuary on November 8.  Come join us or watch the livestream from home.

Blessing of the Animals: Sunday, October 18 at 2 pm

Join us Sunday, October 18, at 2 pm, on the east lawn for a Blessing of the Animals.  All pets are welcome and must be on a leash or held in arms.

Pastor Catherine Neelly Burton offers a blessing to each animal and owner as well as a time of thanksgiving for our animals.  This brief time of worship is a wonderful way to celebrate God’s creation.
