Since the meetinghouse closed down due to the pandemic, we’ve been offering virtual classes for our children over Zoom. Kelly Kennedy has led sing-alongs for all ages every second Sunday. Every fourth Sunday of the month, religious education classes have been divided into preschool, early elementary, and late elementary. On May 1, 2021, we had our first in-person event, a lively morning gathering in Shannon Garrett’s backyard, filled with fun activities like a trampoline and zipline, to mention a few. On May 23, 2012 at The Clearing, we are recognizing our graduate, Hallie Perry at the rise of meeting. Hallie is graduating from Trinity High School and will be attending the University of Mary Washington this fall. Also on May 23 at The Clearing, we are having a nature-oriented scavenger hunt for all the children during the worship time. On June 13, 2021 from 9am- 10:30am, we again meet outdoors, this time at the Mary Munford playground. Activities are planned for all the children. After June 13, RE is taking a summer break. We will be ready to resume in September 2021 with our religious education program for our children. Please contact Monica Shaw with questions/concerns. monicakshaw123@gmail.com
