UCUMC at Parade The Circle Wrap-up

Parade The Circle was a phenomenal success once again this year. We are very grateful to Cathy Day and Marilyn Joerg for coordinating the supplies and arrangements for the popular UCUMC "Mad Hatter" booth. Thank you to all our volunteers who braved the heat to help Parade the Circle participants create an original, colorful, paper sunhat. Over 1,000 hats were made to the delight of children of all ages. Pastor Chalker, Michael Bier and Mark Floyd marched in the parade, which showcased the artistic and musical skills of local and international artists. A good time was had by all!

Applause and thanks to: Yvonne Blanchard, Michelle Brown, Barbara Cox, Cathy and Jeff Day, Judy and Les Fox, Jamie and Ron Fish, Tommie Gettig, Lisa Hallman, Kay Hogg, Lalene and David Kay, Joanna Li, Chiquitia Montgomery, Juliette and Michael Regnier, Patricia Roberts, Richelle Stephens, Mary Ellen Zimmerman

Summer Programming for Children and Youth at University Circle United Methodist Church

Infants, Toddlers, Preschoolers

Child care will be provided during worship this summer for infants, toddlers and preschoolers in the nursery on the lower mezzanine level.

Children (Grades K-6)

Today is the final day of Sunday School for children in grades K-6. We will celebrate Pentecost, the "birthday" of the church, with a party complete with cake and ice cream!

Sunday School will take a "summer vacation" beginning next Sunday, June 19th. Programming will resume on Sunday, September 11th. During the summer, our education space on the mezzanine level of the church will receive a much-anticipated renovation. This renovation will include the construction of new restrooms for boys and girls, as well as a painting "face-lift" and some new designs for the classrooms and hallways. The work that is being done will require us to pack up and store program furniture and materials, so the Sunday School rooms will not be functional program space during this time.

During the summer months, children in grades K-6 are invited to attend worship at 10am with their families. Each Sunday there will be a special children's bulletin related to the scripture lesson of the day, and activity bags (containing fun and quiet things to do!) will be available for young children during the worship service. We look forward to welcoming children and families to wonderful new educational spaces in the fall!

Youth (Grades 7-12)

Youth in grades 7 through 12 are invited to join their families in worship at 10am throughout the summer. Junior High and Senior High programming will resume on Sunday, September 11th.
