Opportunities & Events:

"Lunch & Learn: Being Bohemian..." with Henry Cook: Sunday, April 28 (12:15pm, OFH)

Join us following worship on Sunday, April 28th, in OFH (12:15-1:15pm) for "Lunch & Learn: Being Bohemian... A Young Adult CONVO Retrospective" with Henry Cook.

Henry, a 2023 graduate of Grimsley High School, recently participated in Young Adult CONVO, an every-four-years worldwide gathering of Moravian young people (ages 18-25). This year's group of CONVO delegates made a pilgrimage to the Czech Republic and Germany to visit Moravian historical sites of spiritual significance.

Come enjoy lunch prepared and served by our Youth Fellowship (baked spaghetti, salad, garlic toast, drinks, and desserts) as Henry shares slides and stories from his experience. The cost is free; donations are encouraged to help replenish our CONVO fund for 2027 participants! Please RSVP here by April 21st so that have an accurate headcount for lunch.
