Come to St. James for our Halloween Parade Party from 5-7 pm Tuesday, Oct. 20 (That’s tonight!) and see all our kids’ carefully painted and carved pumpkins on display!

Stick around for candy, pizza, games, prizes and spooky organ music before taking to the streets for the parade! The church steps are a wonderful, elevated place to watch. All are welcome!

Our youth group kids have made their stand, they can do no other!

Wednesday we simulated the reformation with some scary new faux youth group rules handed down from the higher order, then worked through the students’ outrage. We discussed how Martin Luther saw issues with how the medieval church treated people unfairly and in very un-Christ-like ways. We thanked God for sending Martin Luther to help reel in the church by putting God’s everlasting love and forgiveness at the center.

Last, we let the kids write their own reformed rules for youth group to nail to the youth pastor’s bulletin board! We’ll share some of our ideas in another post!

We want to give a shout out to Mark Dellinger and Diane Miles for donating pumpkins for our youth group to carve and paint this year! Our Grade 4-5 kids will get their shot next week and we hope to have some of them on display during our Holloween Open House on Oct. 20 before the big parade!

Thanks to everyone who donated, helped to collect, or spread the word about our Recycle Bicycle collection today! With the help of our friends at South Mountain Velo and Jason and McKenna Reese, we collected 212 bikes and lots of equipment for cycling enthusiasts!

It’s amazing to see so many people come together to make this type of impact. Many people will have transportation and recreational needs met thanks to your kindness and hard work!
