Details:

Overnight Lock-In! - Friday April 13th at 8pm to Saturday April 14th at 8am – Moreland Presbyterian Church – Come one come all to the annual church overnighter.  Our youth will arrive at 8pm on Friday and be “locked-in” the church until 8am on Saturday.  We’ll play games, watch movies, eat snacks, and have some amazing fellowship time.  Come to have fun, and get very little sleep.

Outdoor Sanctuary Service Project - Sunday April 15th from 11:15am to 2pm – Milwaukie Presbyterian Church – We will once again be helping restore the native habitat in the nature space behind Milwaukie Presbyterian Church.  This is a great service project and is a great way to get some of those pesky service hours.   Lunch will be provided.

Field Trip to Mosaic ChurchSunday April 22nd from 4:30-7pm – carpool from Moreland Pres – We continue our Sunday School Field Trip series with a visit to a much “newer” church tradition than the last two places we visited.  Come to experience what it is to worship in an Emerging/Postmodern Church.

Middle School Spring Retreat (Spring Explosion) – Friday April 27th to Sunday April 29th – Trout Creek Bible Camp in Corbett, OR – This is our annual Middle School spring retreat and Josh is really excited for this event.  It’s a great experience and this year we’ll be staying in the “new” cabins and Josh will be one of the speakers for the weekend.  The retreat is $75 per youth and the registration forms and check are due by Sunday April 22nd.  Scholarships are available, see Josh for more information.
