Berkey Intergenerational Summer Classes
Ages 5-105
June, July, August
Our first Sunday of intergenerational summer classes begins on June 1. There is no prior experience needed or expected for any of the classes. Just come and be ready to enjoy each other and experience God in unexpected ways. The classes are not sequential. Each Sunday stands alone in design, however, all Sundays are held together with a larger theme and some common goals. We hope you take the opportunity to join a class that may be completely new to you — and have fun!
Summer SS Goals:
1. Invite people of different ages in the congregation to interact and know each other by name.
2. Affirm and encourage each other to take risks; everyone participates no matter what age or ability.
3. Notice and name gifts of others.
4. Experience God in unexpected ways.
