Family Picnic in the Park:
Saturday, June 12, 2021, 11:00 am – 2:00 pm, Robinswood Park
One Saturday a month this summer families are invited to come to Robinswood Park for a time to gather together and play games. Families are invited to bring their own chairs/blanket, food and drink, and any outdoor games to share. There will be a large group game each month at 11:30 am for any and all to join in.
For those who are interested, we will meet in the church parking lot prior to 11:00 am to walk to the park.
No need to sign-up, just show up and share the fun! For more information, contact Doug Johnson.

Reflecting and Brainstorming Youth Ministry:
Sunday, June 13, 2021, 10:45 am, via Zoom
As we end the program year here at Saint Andrew’s I want to hear back from youth and families about how the year went. After we have taken time reflect on the year, I want to hear from youth and families about what their hopes are for the coming year.
We will meet during the Discipleship Hour, starting at 10:45 am, via Zoom on June 13. The Zoom link will be emailed out to all families with 6-12 grade youth.
I hope to see you there!
Doug Johnson, Director of Youth and Family Ministries.

Tiny Home Build Mission Project:
Week of July 26, 2021, Saint Andrew’s
All materials and instructions for building the tiny home will be delivered to the Saint Andrew’s parking lot.
During the week of July 26, youth and adults will construct the tiny home.

Ongoing….Adult Volunteers Needed!
Have you been missing seeing the youth in church? Do you want to know more about the lives of our wonderful young people? Do you want to have fun and grow in faith? Boy, do we have an opportunity for you! Even though we have been mostly meeting online for our youth events, we still need adults to help with out with our Zoom meetings and to help with our monthly gatherings. If you are interested in helping out, please contact Director of Youth and Family Ministries Doug Johnson,
doug@salc.church or 425-746-2529. The only thing you need to know how to do is use Zoom and listen to our youth!

We are athletes, band geeks, techies, drama kids, gamers, vegetarians, Republicans, Independents, Democrats, Autobots, Decepticons, fashionistas, musicians, and more coming together to worship Christ. We question, laugh, debate, play, advocate, serve, eat, travel, pray, worship, retreat, sing, dance, hug, and hangout in the name of God.

Sunday morning Discipleship: CrossWalk is at 9:45 am in 319/Youth Room. Got questions? Join us each Sunday for coffee, cocoa, donuts, and conversation.

God Squad activities outside of Sunday mornings offer time to hang out together, have fun, serve others, and get away on retreats.

Opportunities for this age group include….
