Young at Heart – September 20, 2019
Summer camp season finished in August, but did you know that Camp Krislund is active throughout the year? Please join us for a celebration of Krislund Camp as we look at its history and help plan for its future. Krislund has been serving the Presbyteries of Huntingdon, Carlisle & Northumberland for 55 years. The camp serves youth in the summer through residence camp, day camp and traveling day camps.  In the retreat season, September through May, Krislund serves all ages through providing space, food and some programs for college groups, family and church groups, workshops and volunteer opportunities. As we look to the future, Krislund would like your input on what is important to you in today’s world and how you see that manifesting at your camp. Krislund’s new Executive Director, Kim Bosse’, will guide us through a conversation about Krislund 2025!

If you’ve never attended or rarely attended Young at Heart, this is an opportunity to try it out. You’ll meet interesting people and hear about interesting topics.  Importantly, it is a fellowship event as well as an informative program.  The evening begins as we gather about 5:00 in the Social Hall for conversation over coffee/tea while you set up your things for the potluck supper.  Bring a main course, salad, side or dessert to share (your choice), 2 utensils to serve it, and your own table service plus a name tag.  Your own table service means: dinner/dessert plate (s), silverware, cup(s) for water/coffee/tea and a napkin.  The potluck buffet starts at 5:30 and the program follows, usually about 6:30 pm.  We are typically out about 7:30 pm.  Please join us.
New Name, Same Awesome Fellowship!
Our college-age ministry has a new name!  We are now Presbyterian Student Fellowship, because we wanted a name that was more straightforward.  We will always hold onto the mission and heart of Westminster Presbyterian Fellowship, but felt it was time for a new name to fit a new era of students at Penn State.  If you want to help support this ministry or you’re a college-aged person that wants to get involved contact Allison Maus.
Lunch with the Pastor
Join Dean Lindsey on the 4th Wednesday of the month at Wegmans at noon and have Lunch with the Pastor!

Upcoming Dates:
  • September 25
  • October 23
  • November 27
