“We don’t stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing.” –George Bernard Shaw

My aunt is a retired kindergarten teacher, and nobody knows how to add play to our family gatherings like she does. At our recent Easter gathering, we not only created parachutes for Peeps bunnies and awarded a prize to the person with the most hang time after dropping them from a ladder, but also tried to bounce plastic Easter eggs into a variety of plastic cups worth differing amounts of points on the dining room table. We laughed SO MUCH at this Easter gathering, because everyone, adult and child, were completely engaged in these silly games. How can you add play to your summer gatherings?

Even as an adult who hasn’t been in school for 20+ years, I still look forward to summer with childlike excitement. Somehow the idea that summer is filled with endless days of outdoor fun and relaxation hasn’t left my brain, even though that is far from reality.

The past few summers, I’ve felt disappointed when summer has actually felt busier and more frantic than the school year, as the school season does provide a certain amount of structure! Social calendars fill up fast when we try to fit in all the “summer fun” while still doing all of the regular life things.

Some things that have helped a little with this are a (short, realistic) summer bucket list, reserving one weekend (or even one day) per month to be spontaneous or unscheduled, and modifying expectations for other parts of life. What “regular life things” could you simplify to make more time for summer social connections?

It’s June – time for graduation season! I vividly remember my high school graduation party-or rather the months before my graduation party. My parents decided that it was necessary to overhaul our entire house before it would be worthy of hosting such a gathering–the months leading up to the party were filled with house projects, painting, staining the deck, buying new outdoor furniture, and probably dozens of other projects that I didn’t even notice as a high school senior!

I can also get wrapped up in thinking that our space has to be perfect before we can invite people in-but in my experience, some of my most fun social gatherings have been informal and spontaneous. Buy a gallon of ice cream, get out some paper bowls and invite the neighbors over to your unstained, non-swept deck. Order a pizza and sit on the front porch with some friends. It doesn’t have to be perfect to provide a meaningful social connection!

In Jesus' teachings, death and resurrection we see a pattern of humility, service and love given generously to us and our neighbors. His witness remains with us forever. Our own life and witness ensures this way of life continues. Listen to Pastor Jon's podcast, "Lasting Witness."
