Sunday School Pods Start September 20
On September 20, we will start a new way of doing Sunday School that we’re calling “Sunday School Pods.” These will be inter-generational educational opportunities for everyone in our church. These small groups (small enough to practice social distancing in classrooms across the building) will meet each Sunday from 10:10-10:50, and the theme for this Fall is “Stories from Genesis.”
5th Graders and younger may attend a Children’s Sunday School class for their age if the parent chooses (more info about these classes coming soon), but please know that they are welcome in these Pods, which are being designed for all ages.
Sign up today at tcpca.org/pods or email Mark Randle with any questions at mrandle@tcpca.org.
VERITAS Sunday School Class
The VERITAS Adult Sunday School class will return to a study of the Epistle to the Galatians, Chapters 3-6, beginning September 13th. Our teacher will be Ron Whitley. You are welcome to join us in the Parlor, or virtually via Zoom. Kindly e-mail Harry Standinger (hstandin@hotmail.com) if you plan to attend in-person, or to receive a link to the virtual meeting.
Youth Group Fall 2020
Starting Wednesday September 9th, we will hold Youth Group each Wednesday from 7:00-8:30, either in the TCPC Fellowship Hall or on the soccer field (weather permitting). Our hope is that each week we can have teaching, games, and small groups. We will be requiring students and small group leaders to wear masks, and we will be adhering to all other local COVID restrictions so that we can continue to meet. This means there will be a few changes: we will be spreading out through the much larger Fellowship Hall, we will not have food on Wednesday nights, and any games we play will be adjusted for social distancing. If and when guidelines change, we will adapt accordingly.
Feel free to email Mac Holt with any questions at mholt@tcpca.org.
Foundations Weekend - October 16-17
Registration is now open for our next membership class on October 16-17. The sessions will be Friday night and Saturday morning, and breakfast and dinner are provided. We invite anyone who is interested in pursuing membership and learning more about our church history and theology. To sign up, go to tcpca.org/foundations. Please email Nate Jones with any questions at njones@tcpca.org.
Parish Groups Starting in September
Parish Groups will be resuming in September! In light of the complexity of in-person gathering due to Covid 19, we aim to keep Parish Groups as simple as possible for the new year. Therefore, you will not need to sign up for a group this fall, but the groups from last year will remain in place. You will be hearing from your Parish Group leader in the coming weeks!
If you are new to Parish Groups, please click here to sign up.
If you would like to be reassigned to a new group, email Mark Randle (mrandle@tcpca.org) and he will get you in a group.
Men’s Bible Study
The Wednesday Noon Men’s Bible Study will started today and will continue to meet both in-person (in the Lower Level Boardroom) and simultaneously online (using Zoom). We will resume our study of Ephesian with chapter 5. Paul explains to the Ephesians (and each of us today!) how we are to live as Christ’s disciples. We have a good time of fellowship and prayer for one another. Men of all ages are welcome. Come join us! If you have any questions or need additional information, please email Harry Standinger at hstandin@hotmail.com
Company of Men
Company of Men resumes on Thursday, September 10 at 7:00 am. We will be meeting at TCPC in the lower level this fall. Company of Men is a wonderful way for men to enjoy fellowship, study the Bible and pray for one another (we also discuss various other topics!). If you have any questions, please email Mark Randle: mrandle@tcpca.org.
Mom's Day Out Openings
Our Mother's Day Out program is up and running, and we are so excited to serve 1-4 year olds this year! We still have two spots left in our 3/4 year old classroom. Contact Malisa Anderson at mdo@tcpca.org if you are interested!
