Fall means the beginning of another year of ministry opportunities
at Friendship Place. Maybe this will
be the year that you join us in ministering to the children of the Meadow
Park neighborhood. We need your help! |
Our BIG NEWS is that Mandy Mirau is joining us as our first ever Program
Director! We're looking forward to the enthusiasm, consistency and
new ideas she will bring to our afternoon program, which will begin Monday,
September 8. Our church has responsibility for Monday and Tuesday
afternoons from 4:00 to 5:30, working with elementary age children with
homework help, reading, sewing, snacks, games and other crafts or projects.
Our evenings (7:00 to 8:30, Monday and Tuesday) are for tutoring middle
school and high school students in whatever subjects they need, with the
occasional RCTC student or adult ESL student needing help.
Many, many thanks for the wonderful teens and adults who helped make
this our best summer program ever! Pastor John and Derek led an outstanding
group of our teens in providing games, water activities, and warm positive
interactions with up to 30 delighted neighborhood children. It was
a real joy working with you all!
Looking for a cross-cultural experience in our own hometown? Want
to help with "at risk" students, showing love and stability to children
who may not get it anywhere else in their lives? Come help us be
Christ's hands and feet in this needy area of Rochester. Questions?
Call the church office at 289-2990.
