Summer Arts Jam, June 2-6, 2014. Our popular  Day Camp for Preschool – 5th graders. We welcome “Kutandara Marimbas” for our musical experience every morning with a performance on Friday afternoon! Registration is now  online. Visit the Summer Camp Page for more information. Counselor (high school) and Counselor in Training (middle school) applications available online, too.

As the weather gets nicer, we need Playground Monitors from 10 – 11 a.m. between services.  Sign up online to provide a safe and comfortable experience for the children while you enjoy the sunshine! PS. Our Fire Bowl is rusted out. Can anyone donate one?

Interested in being on the “School Board?” School of the Spirit Board that is. We are creating a governing council for SpiritJam to meet once a month and:

  •  Advise on program structure.
  •  Review successes and challenges.
  •  Provide congregational communication.
  •  Oversee Budget and School of the Spirit Fund.
  •   Integrate ARE and CYRE into a Lifespan School of the Spirit.
