April 18th - MN Reconciling Congregations’ Spring Gathering
Welcome spring by attending the Minnesota Reconciling Congregations' Spring Gathering on April 18 from 11:30 am - 2:30 pm at Holy Trinity United Methodist Church, 16150 Arcadia Ave SE in Prior Lake. The event starts with a gathering time and potluck lunch in the lower level Fellowship Hall followed by a program in the upper level Sanctuary.
This year will feature a panel discussion that will cover the theme of "Welcoming the Whole Person: The Journey Toward LGBTQIA+ Clergy Leadership." Hear from clergy, laity, and a conference superintendent about how our churches can go beyond our vote and on to welcoming the whole person leading our congregations.
We hope to see you there!
Glendale UMC will be volunteering with The Open Door Food Pantry
Next volunteer opportunity is May 13th at Eagle Ridge Middle School, located at 13955 Glendale Road, Savage, MN. The volunteer hours are from 2:30 pm to 4:30 pm.
We have drivers to deliver food to clients who cannot travel to Eagle Ridge Middle School, and volunteers to help distribute food at the school. For more information, please contact Glendale at 952-894-5394.
Watch our very own community member perform in Unlabeled Theatre Company next presentation:
Once Upon A Mattress - May 14-24, Buy tickets here.
Many moons ago in a far-off place, Queen Aggravain decreed no couples could marry until her son, Prince Dauntless, found a bride. Princesses came from far and wide to win the hand of the prince, but none could pass the impossible tests given to them by the Queen. That is, until the “shy” swamp princess, Winnifred the Woebegone, showed up. Would she be able to pass the Sensitivity Test, marry her prince and help Lady Larken and Sir Harry to the altar? Carried on a wave of wonderful songs, by turns hilarious and raucous, romantic and melodic, this rollicking spin on the classic tale The Princess and the Pea provides some side-splitting shenanigans. For after all, a princess is a delicate thing.
