An open and affirming community, seeking a caring and just society.
SAGES is the lunch and learn gathering of older adults at Southminster. You’re invited to come to the next SAGES Gathering on Thursday 11/17 at 11:30 AM for lunch with a program to follow. This month’s guest speaker is Seth Wheeler, who will speak about the Idaho State Historical Society. Lunch will be $10.
Please call Roger or Darleen Brown, Rex ReAgan, Kathryn Nicholas, or the church office to RSVP.
(Starting in 2023, SAGES will return to its every-other-month schedule).
Southminster has an active group of men who meet twice monthly for lunch and fellowship together. The group orders off each restaurant’s menu and typically pays for their own meals. Questions? Contact the church office for more information.
2nd Tuesday of each month at 11:30am — Life’s Kitchen
4th Tuesday of each month at 11:30am — Casa Mexico, Fairview
Your Connections Committee is excited to share that Dinners for 8 is returning after a long pandemic-induced hiatus. For our Dinners for 8 program, hosts open their homes for an evening of shared food and conversation, with guests agreeing to bring something to contribute to the meal.
Soon, you find sign-up sheets in the narthex, asking if you are willing to host or be a guest at one of these dinners. Because COVID and other illnesses continue to lurk in our midst, we want to do this safely. Options include hosting on patios or other outdoor places, or to have only 4-6 guests. The initial sign-up is simply to gauge interest, and then the committee will plan from there. We plan for dinners to begin in late September or early October.
Pastor TJ will be hosting a “Discover Southminster” gathering on Tuesday August 23 at 6:30pm in the narthex. Those who have been visiting Southminster or who are thinking about joining our membership will find this to be a great opportunity to explore our questions and callings together.
If you’d like to join our congregation as a member, an affiliate member, or even as a remote member (attending primarily online), this gathering will be especially informative for you!
To attend, please RSVP to Pastor TJ, or contact the church office.
Please join us for a weekend of reflection, beautiful surroundings, good food, and fun company! Child care is provided during the morning sessions and we have transportation from the lodge to the chapel for those who don’t want to walk that far.
Check in is Friday, August 12 at the Lodge after 4pm—and we leave for home on Sunday after lunch and cleanup. Fees
for food and lodging is $25 per person with a cap of $60 per family. Kids 3 and under are free. Starting July 3 there will be a registration booth set up in the Narthex to collect your registration forms and fees.
Hope to see you at Camp!
