Would you like to go on an exciting camping trip with your church friends and members of Venture Crew 12? Would you like to learn more about camping skills and how to minimize our impact on the environment? Would you like to learn more about Venture Crew 12?

We have been on many adventures and would like to help other people enjoy similar opportunities. You are welcome to join us on the next Crew 12 trip, which will feature hiking and camping in Letchworth State Park, about 30 miles south of Rochester, NY. We will see some spectacular waterfalls formed by the Genesee River. The more adventurous could hike the Gorge Trail, which is 5 miles long and follows a series of waterfalls. The roaring sound of the nearby Genesee River will gently lull us to sleep at night. You will discover why it is called the "Grand Canyon of the East."

We have plenty of tents and other equipment to loan out if necessary. If you are experienced campers, you are welcome to bring your own tents. We will bring stoves to demonstrate various cooking techniques, so we can prepare communal meals for all to enjoy. Campground, food, and transportation costs will be shared.

Last week, Pastor Will and Sydney Turner accompanied Emma and Grace Tscherne and Zach Gorham on a 4-day stay at Pilgrim Lodge in Maine to participate in Faith Foundations, a summer church camp, where they learned how to build and participate in community, how to rely on friends and community when parents aren't there, and where they gained a deeper appreciation for God's glorious creation!

Dear Plymouth Church Family,

 

Thank you to everyone! You have been a great source of comfort and strength to us during this very difficult time. Your willingness to display the Ghost Bike at the church was a gift to our family. It helped us to have a place to keep Gene's memory present and meaningful. The bike now has a new home. It will be placed at the Lincoln Police Department as a memorial to all fallen people in the town of Lincoln. It will be a visible reminder to share the roads for safety to all. The bike will go up some time in August. If you are in the area, please take a minute to stop by and visit it. We are truly blessed to be part of such a loving community.

Blessings to all,

Patrice and Patrick
