It Takes a Village
It takes a village to raise a child, it takes a village to manage a vibrant religious education program, it takes a village to maintain a healthy congregation.
At People’s Church we celebrate diversity and pluralism. It is because of the collection of diverse people with various theological beliefs, classes, ages, genders, and lived experience that makes our village stronger and more interesting.
I think that the diversity of ages in this congregation is such a blessing for everyone. It is especially such a gift for our children and youth to have the opportunity to interact with and get to know our elders.
It is only when we all contribute what we can in our own ways that the collective whole is at its healthiest. Be on the lookout for opportunities to serve, connect, deepen connections. Our village at People’s is richer and more vibrant as more diverse demographics step up to the call and get involved.
Parents frequently need a break when they come to church. If you are not actively parenting children at this time, please consider the ways you can answer the call to serve our diverse and dynamic ministry for children, youth and families at People’s.
In our June 1st service, we will be sharing more about this as well as honoring our RE teachers and bridging seniors. Please come to church on June 1st to recognize our RE teachers and seniors. I hope to see you there!
Blessed Be, Diane Melvin Religious Education Director
