8:30-11:45 am in the church
We are looking for middle schoolers to make the disciples come alive at our First Communion Retreat for 2nd and 3rd graders. You will be provided costumes, and the action takes place in the church at the altar table. You will pantomime the role of the disciples with Jesus – there are no lines to speak. It’s an easy and fun way to serve.
