Sunday, February 11
This year our Souper Bowl of Caring offering will be going to the Cheyney University Resource Pantry. All money collected will go to the pantry to purchase food, self-care, and school supplies students might need during the school year. After the 10am service on February 11, youth will stand in the Narthex with large soup pots to collect cash and checks (made out to “Westminster Presbyterian”). Our goal is to beat our previous year’s total and reach $4,000 – we need your help! Questions? Contact Chris Clark.

Designed for families of 2nd-5th grade, this interactive workshop is designed to help children and parents better understand Communion in our tradition, why we celebrate it, and who can take it (spoiler alert... all are welcome at the table!). Come and find that preparing the table, drama, arts/crafts, and cooking all just may be a part of this workshop! And parents will have a separate time to learn and share, as well. Click here to signup. Questions? Contact Jill Reichert.

Modern family life is busy and full when you’re a parent or a teenager. There are so many places to be, activities to be on time for, and things to check off our to-do lists. Where does our spiritual centering come from in the midst of it all?

We are inviting families of teenagers (grade 6-12) to consider that question together by gathering together two times at the beginning of this year to share a meal together, share stories together, and set intentions together by crafting a "Rule of Life" for your family during the season of Lent.

A Rule of Life is not a rigid statute but a flexible guide to help you intentionally stay true to the values that are most important for your family. It helps provide some balance and centering in the midst of the ebbs and flows of life. Over dinner, your family will be guided through crafting your own Rule of Life to help you find your Center. Click here to sign up.
