Deadline for Mystery Pals sign up is Feb. 12th: Sign up now for this fun program!

Mystery Pals begins February 16th

Mystery Pals is a multi-Sunday event in which children and youth are anonymously (it’s a Mystery!) paired up with an older person (a youth or adult). Pairings are based on shared interests, and participants learn who their Mystery Pals are only on the final Sunday.

Soul Matters for Parents, February 23rd

Please join us at 12:30 on February 23rd to reflect and discuss as parents on the theme for March: Wisdom.


Lunch and childcare are provided.

February's Theme is Resilience

This month the theme is “Resilience”.


Resilience is interesting, because it is defined as both strength and flexibility, the ability to withstand pressure and the quality of bouncing back to integrity and wholeness after a pressure or deformation.


Resilience is also a major focus of parenting and education these days! For kids, it's all about growth mindset, learning from failure, and being able to ask for help. Read more here.

Time to Register Now if You Have Not Already!

Our new year of classes begin this Sunday! It's going to be a great year, and one way to make it even better … knowing who will be coming!
