What a night at First Church! More than 125 people came together Sunday evening for our Hymn Sing, Ice Cream Supper, and Blessing of the Bikes!
We’re not sure who had more fun, the kids riding bicycles and scooters or those watching them learn to navigate an obstacle course of orange cones and a ramp! There were smiles, laughter, a little careful maneuvering, and plenty of cheering.
And the blessings didn’t stop with bicycles! We blessed motorcycles and motor bikes of all sizes, car keys and the drivers who carry them, and even those who use walkers because they have wheels too! It was a wonderful reminder that wherever the road takes us and however we get there, we can ask for God’s blessing, protection, and presence along the way.
We are so thankful for everyone who helped make the evening possible: those who led us in worship, prepared the yummy food, served our guests, and created a phenomenal obstacle course for our kiddos. This is what community looks like: worshiping, laughing, eating, serving, and simply enjoying being together.
Look for more great nights like this in the future. It’s good to come together. It’s good to laugh together. And it’s good to be reminded that there is a place for everyone in community at First Church.
Love Boldly. Serve Joyfully. Lead Courageously.
