SUMMARY:Earth Day: Battery Recycling
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate Earth Day with Purpose\nJoin us in honoring Earth Day by making a meaningful impact in your community. Our Environmental Justice and Stewardship team is hosting a battery recycling event\, and you’re invited to take part in this simple yet powerful act of care for our planet. \nWhy Battery Recycling Matters\nMany household batteries end up in landfills\, where they can leak harmful chemicals into the soil and water. Recycling them properly helps reduce environmental harm and supports responsible stewardship of the resources we’ve been given. \nWhat to Bring\nWe welcome batteries of all sizes commonly used in the home\, from small everyday batteries to larger household types. Simply bring your used batteries and place them in the designated collection bins. Our team will take care of the rest. \nMake an Impact Together\nThis is a great opportunity to declutter your home while contributing to a healthier environment. It’s also a chance to come together as a community and live out our shared commitment to caring for creation. \nJoin Us\nWhether you’ve been saving up old batteries or just have a few to recycle\, every contribution makes a difference. Be part of this Earth Day effort and help us build a culture of stewardship and environmental responsibility.

SUMMARY:Conversations on Christian Parenting
DESCRIPTION:Parenting in Today’s World: A Faith-Centered Conversation\nEvent Overview\nRaising children today can feel both deeply meaningful and incredibly complex. We are inviting parents and caretakers of children ages 0–12 to join us for a welcoming space to share wisdom\, encouragement\, and real-life experiences in parenting. This gathering is designed to support those who are seeking to raise their children in a Christ-like and Christ-following way while navigating a world that looks very different from the one we grew up in. \nA Space for Honest Conversation\nParenting doesn’t come with a simple roadmap; especially when balancing faith\, values\, and the realities of today’s culture. This event creates an environment where you can wrestle with those questions alongside others who understand the journey. Together\, we will explore what it means to model Christ in our homes\, have meaningful conversations with our children\, and approach parenting with both grace and intentionality. \nLed by Pastor Daniel\nEach session will be guided by Pastor Daniel\, offering thoughtful insight\, practical perspective\, and space for open discussion. Whether you’re navigating early childhood or the transitions that come with growing kids\, this is an opportunity to learn\, reflect\, and grow alongside a supportive community. \nFlexible and Welcoming\nWe understand that life is busy. While this is a multi-session experience\, you are not required to attend every session to participate. You are welcome to join whenever you are able. Each gathering is designed to stand on its own while contributing to a larger\, ongoing conversation. \nSupport for You and Your Family\nTo make participation easier\, childcare will be available during each session. Light refreshments and snacks will also be provided so you can come\, settle in\, and focus on the conversation without added stress.\n\nRegistration \nWhile attendance is flexible\, we kindly ask that you register to help us plan for childcare and create the best experience possible for everyone. \nRegister here >\nEvent Details\n\nAudience: Parents and caretakers of children ages 0–12\nLed by: Pastor Daniel\nChildcare: Available at each session\nRegistration: Requested (no RSVP required\, but appreciated for planning)\nAttendance: Come to one or all sessions\nFood: Refreshments and snacks provided\n\nJoin Us\nWhether you’re looking for guidance\, community\, or simply a space to be heard\, this gathering is for you.

SUMMARY:Hope for the Home: Less Stuff\, More God
DESCRIPTION:Save the Date: Hope for the Home: Less Stuff\, More God\nWhat would it feel like to create space in your home and your life for what matters most? \nJoin us for Hope for the Home: Less Stuff\, More God\, an upcoming event designed to help you pause\, reflect\, and re-center in the midst of life’s constant noise and clutter. Led by Amy Slenker-Smith\, Life and Business Coach with Simply Enough\, this experience will guide you in rethinking your relationship with “stuff” and how it impacts your spiritual life. \nWe live in a culture that constantly pushes for more\, yet many of us feel overwhelmed by both physical clutter and mental noise. What fills our spaces often fills our minds as well\, leaving little room for peace or reflection. This event invites you to step into a different rhythm\, one that creates margin for clarity\, rest\, and a deeper connection with God. \nWhat you will gain:\nYou will walk away with a fresh perspective on what truly matters and a renewed sense of clarity in your daily life. Through guided reflection and practical teaching\, you will learn simple\, actionable strategies to begin decluttering your home and your mind. More importantly\, you will discover how creating space in your environment can open the door to deeper peace\, purpose\, and meaningful spiritual encounter. \nMore details\, including date\, time\, and registration\, will be shared soon. \nRegistration Coming Soon! \nWant to help make this event happen? Sign up to volunteer here! \nFor now\, save the date and begin imagining what it could look like to live with less distraction and more intention. \nThere is hope for your home. And it begins by making space for what matters most.
