First Communion Bread

Last month, a few of our young members decided that they were ready to learn about partake in the Lord’s Supper.

So they gathered together for a couple hours to learn about the history of Communion: who started it, who shares the meal, what the significance is for Christians.

It was both a class and an activity day.

They made the bread that they would eat with the rest of the congregation at their First Communion.

They made invitations to send to special family and friends.

And here are some awesome pictures from that day (sadly enough, one student isn’t pictured because she met on a different day):

Survey time!

Over the course of the past few months, TCM council members have been working to compile a list of questions to ask to members and nonmembers about church: what excites us, why we do/don’t attend, what programs or ministries we want, etc

And so we put together a survey. It is available online and also in paper form (in churches Nov 6).

Thanks for your participation and we look forward to reading what you have to say!

Hello, TCM!

This is the first blog post! (nothing like being obvious)

The intention of this blog is for a quick, fun, and easy way to communicate.

I’m not sure all that will be posted here, but it should be interesting. Whether pictures or thoughts about activities, plans for the future, or the occasional sermon, I hope that you will continue to read about what is going on in your parish, your church, your youth group, your confirmation class, your Sunday School, your Bible study, etc. I hope you get the idea that we want you to know what is going on, to be excited about all that we are doing in God’s name, and to help us brainstorm where and how God is leading us into the future!

The main bloggers are myself (Pastor Kara), Pastor Jessica, Theresa (parish admin) and Darla (youth director).

If you ever have anything to add, or want to post something, please email one of us and we’ll get your pictures uploaded or words inserted.

I hope you enjoy reading and keeping up with what is going on at TCM!!!!!!!
