Got kids and need some time to do some shopping? This might be for you


Got Kids???

Need to pick up that last minute gift, get wrapping done or just relax!? Saturday, December 20th, there are two, 3 hour holiday activity sessions at St. John’s, 237 Pleasant Street, Franklin. 9:00am to 12:00pm and 12:30pm to 3:30pm. $15 per child, $10 per sibling, $35 family max per session.

This is available for children potty trained through age 11. If you want to sign your child(ren) up for both sessions, please bring a sack lunch.

Please contact Kim Mayhew or Sydney Robinson with any questions or to register your child(ren) please email R.Family5@hotmail.com with name(s), age(s) and session(s). Space is limited.

This is a fundraising event and the money raised will go towards the Youth Leadership Academy's August mission trip to El Salvador for Sydney Robinson.

The Youth Leadership Academy (YLA) is a program for rising 9th and 10th graders in the Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts. The program begins with a week at the Barbara C. Harris Camp and Conference Center during the summer, where part of the curriculum is based around team building, working in small groups and empowering the youth with the public narrative tool, which they can use as a way to articulate their faith as it relates to the world around them.

Throughout the year, each participant creates and leads a self-chosen project in their home parish community by creating a leadership team and empowering other members of their community to take on roles to make their project a success. Successful parish projects begin with the inspired young leader, but proliferate out as they draw in more members of the parish and leads to change within the community.
