Gathering of Men

 

This unique group gathers on the first Saturday of every month for two hours of personal sharing and group support.   Built on the premise that there is much about our experience as men that can only be shared with, and understood by, other men, we work to create an atmosphere of trust and deep care in which we can tell stories, expose wounds, and wrestle with some of the loneliness, secret fears and enduring hopes that go with being men.

Although its primary mission is to open men to themselves, to others, and to God, the group adopts a large family at Christmas, participates in the Rotating Housing program, hosts an annual church barbecue, and provides leadership in many other aspects of church life.

Men of all ages

Every First Saturday, Fireside Room

8 to 10 a.m.

Light Breakfast provided

Facilitator, member rotation

 

High Road Hikers

Hikers walk once a month on alternating Saturdays (all-day hikes) and Sundays (afternoon hikes), in the spring, summer and fall. Singles, couples, and families participate.   All ages and all people are welcome. Current schedule available on entryway kiosk in Fellowship Hall. Contact: Susan or Dave Sargent, 378-1232

 

50+ Unlimited

50+ Unlimited is made up of men and women, age 50 and older who come together for fellowship and fun in a variety of activities throughout the year.   There is no membership requirement; all are invited.   We hope to grow in our sense of belonging to a caring community by participating with others in casual, enjoyable events in a wide variety of settings.

50+ is guided by a 14-person Steering Committee which develops a broad and varied calendar each year based on ideas from everyone who participates.   The past calendars, for example, included such events as taking part in a Hakone Gardens Tea Ceremony, attending a San Jose Giants baseball game, going to the Sunset Magazine Open House, and seeing the wildlife at Elkhorn Slough.   In addition, there are opportunities for barbecues, potlucks, a Christmas party, attendance at Stanford Theater for movie classics, and other events listed on the calendar in the Fellowship Hall.

If you are new to the church or thinking about becoming a member, or if you are a long time member who has never participated in the 50+ Unlimited, you are most cordially invited to join in the fun and fellowship.

For more information, call Bob or Betty Renfer, 248-8756.

 

Church Family Camp!

The All-Church Retreat is a wonderful opportunity for the entire church family to come together to fellowship, study, and play.  Held in the Santa Cruz Mountains, there is time for dividing into age levels, time to be all together, and time to spend on your own or with your family.
