Don't miss this new episode of "Mess Makes Meaning" - a podcast for parents from Everyday Godly Play

Join the Godly Play Foundation staff as they talk about the ups and downs of leaving summer, greeting fall, and implementing family rhythms to have their kids feel as supported as they can be during this change of season. Stay tuned for the blessing at the end of each episode because that is especially for you, the parents/caregivers listening. You are enough. You are loved.

I wonder what family rhythm your family likes best?

All are invited to host Coffee Hour (after the 10:00 am service) one Sunday this fall. We promise this is a relatively easy task. It involves picking up pre-ordered munchkins from the Dunkin Donuts on Trapelo Road in Belmont. Then just come to the kitchen and roll otu the cart with all the supplies (2 Keurig Coffee Makers, shelf-stable milk, sugar, etc.) Make sure the Keurigs both have water, plug them in, put the donuts in baskets and you are ready! Full instructions (with photos!) can be found here.
