Church Camping Weekend: Sept. 25-27

Originaly Posted on September 13, 2009

We’re going to have a Highland Park Community Church camping weekend at Tinicum Park the last weekend in September (Sept. 25-27). We’ll be camping from Friday night through Sunday afternoon at Group Site #2. Church will not be held in Highland Park on Sunday Sept. 27th. We’ll have an informal “service” at the campground around the campfire. Even if you can’t go camping that weekend stop by the campground on Sun. morning for the service.

The camping weekend will be a time to kick back, have fun, and get to know each other; we’ll organize a couple of fun activities…we’ll eat together and play together! You’ll only have to prepare one meal for the group…the rest of the time you get to relax and other people will prepare your meals.

Walking the Prayer Labyrinth

Originaly Posted on September 13, 2009

We’re continuing to walk the Prayer Labyrinth on Wed. evenings. The time is now 7:15 p.m. to 8:15 p.m.

It is a great way to end the evening, walking in prayer and reCentering our day around Jesus. If you are new to walking the prayer labyrinth, don’t worry, they’ll be instruction if needed. Though we gather to walk together, we pray quietly, walking into the Center towards God, and then outward, renewed for the journey before us.

A great way to keep your heart wide open before God this Summer. Who knows what He might do?!

You know about the outdoor Starlite Movie Nites we hold every summer, but this year we are cooling things down with an Ice Cream Social to go along with the hot summer flicks! Scheduled for two Fridays this summer – and a possible 3rd in early September – come on out and bring the whole family on July 21st and August 24th.

Movie starts around 7pm, and we’ll wrap the night up by 10pm so the kiddies don’t miss out on too much sleep.

Bring Your Mother to Church…

Originaly Posted on May 1, 2009

Mother’s Day is Sunday, May 10th and we are encouraging you to bring your Mother to Church that day. It is a special day for all the special women in your life. So, treat her well,  buy her a new outfit, and bring her to church.

We’ll have a special treat in the Back Porck Cafe area for Moms … homemade  Waffles with a variety of delicious toppings for her to choose from. 

See you then! Come a few minutes before to get them hot… waffles, that is, not Moms. 

PS … if you can’t bring YOUR Mom, then Bring A Mom … any Mom, and that will be just fine with us.
