The River Church Community

Hello parents of 4^th-5^th graders,

One of our Kids’ Community values is offering opportunities to kids to serve.  Our 4^th and 5^th graders are mature enough to do some regular activities, so they will go and serve every other month on Sunday AM’s.  Brett and Angie Bymaster will supervise these opportunities, and they will be near SJSU.

The first opportunity to serve this year will be the last Sunday of this month, October 25^th.  The children will go to Heritage Home, a home for young and unmarried pregnant women, and do light yard work.  Please note the following:

-          Please arrive on time that Sunday.  The group will be out the door by 10:05am.  They will return by 11:45am (note the later time).

-          Permission slips will need to be signed by a parent in order for a child to attend.  It is also fine to opt out and have your child join the 2^nd-3^rd graders or you in the service if you prefer.

-          Angie and Brett will be driving and will need one more driver.  Let me know if you or a spouse would like to go along, either regularly or for this first event.

-          Obviously – old clothes for this one!  And garden gloves if you have them.

The next opportunity will be on Dec. 27, and the group will sing and do a holiday activity at Homewood Nursing Facility.
