LOGOS ~ Chrysalis for grades 6-8
LOGOS Returns Virtually with Family Ministry!
We are in uncertain times, so now more than ever we need to be reminded of the connection we have to each other through God and through the church. LOGOS usually is ministry with & for the children and youth of our community, but this year LOGOS will more resemble family ministry as we connect groups of families to share time with one another throughout the fall semester.
We will continue to follow our own building safety protocols, listen to medical experts and science, and keep in touch with what the school district is doing, as we proceed. We will be offering virtual opportunities to connect each week with each other. Once we have registrations completed, we will group a few families together so that those family groups can meet virtually to share meals, play games, discuss Bible stories and connect with one another. All family members are welcome at these “gatherings”.
Twice a month, on an RSVP basis, meals will be available to pick up curbside from Mike and Amy (thank you!) and then we encourage those meals to be shared virtually within family groups. The other two Tuesdays a month, offerings will be provided online for anyone to partake including exciting Bible stories and the always fun Worship Skills with Ned. The first meal will be offered on the 1st Tuesday in October- don't forget to RSVP!
No tuition will be collected this year, however donations to help cover food costs are appreciated from anyone in the program or church members who are not a part of LOGOS. If you would like to donate to help cover food costs, please put LOGOS in the memo of your check made out to SCPC.
We know LOGOS is going to look different this year, but with your involvement, we believe we can be a stronger program and continue to be an important time investment for families. We are all God’s Children. We have some fun ideas planned, so register NOW, and join us as you are able through the FALL.
Please register for GECKOS and Chrysalis online ASAP - Click links below to complete forms.
Questions can be directed to Keri Rounsville , Deannine Shipman or Ned Wetherald.
We are looking forward to “seeing” you soon!

What is Chrysalis?
Chrysalis is the middle-school segment of LOGOS (a four-part program of Christian nurture including Bible Study, Worship Skills, Recreation/Activities and Dinners for Children and Youth in Grades 1-8). The name, Chrysalis, is a nod to this changing time in a child's life. Our Program
Chrysalis incorporates the four LOGOS times into a different schedule. We're also a "youth group" in that we have a caring leadership team that stays with the group throughout the night. We start our Tuesday night with a casual singing in Gathering Time at 5:15 pm (Tower Room). At 5:35 pm, we head to Worship Skills where we prepare to be in worship leadership (about once/month). Family Time begins at 6:15 pm in the Fireside Room, with great food and play around our dinner table. The final hour of our night always involves some play (activity time) and an exploration of Christian practices (Bible Time). Our practices curriculum is based on Way to Live. Our special events each year include a Fall Retreat at Krislund and a spring Lock-In. |
