Kidpower South Durham Parent/Child Workshop
In the workshop adults and their children learn and practice age-appropriate everyday People Safety skills, including: walking with awareness, on-line safety, keeping themselves safe from hurtful words, learning to set boundaries on touch and teasing and how to get help from busy adults. We introduce skills using stories and activities relevant to the children’s ages and life situations, then coach adults and kids to practice together. This workshop helps answer the question, “How can we teach our children to be safe without scaring them?” in a fun, age-appropriate, experiential way. In this class, adults are active participants with their child and are expected to stay with their child the entire class. All adults in the children’s lives are encouraged to attend.
Date of Class: June 16th, 2018
10:30-noon (3-6 year olds)
12:30-2:30 (7-12 year olds)
**If you have children in both age groups, contact me and we will decide which class is best for all kids to attend**
Location: Parkwood United Methodist church – 5123 Revere road, Durham 27713
Fees: $40* per family

Fall Sermon Series at Parkwood United Methodist Church
“Christians today wring their hands over the church’s declining influence even as they become stuck in defending and protecting its traditions. Is there a way through this dilemma?” (Heath, backcover)
Using Elaine A. Heath’s book God Unbound and the Book of Galatians, we will begin to undo our limiting vision of God, to truly become aware that God is so much more than we can ever imagine. Each week, our sermon will follow a chapter from Heath’s book. Join us as we begin to understand the tradition behind our faith and how the church is called to step out in ministry.
Sept. 3 “A Unexpected Problem with Paul”
Sept. 10 “Loving the Tradition behind the Tradition”
Sept. 17 “Opening Ourselves to God”
Sept. 24 “Authority, Discernment, Call”
Oct. 1 “When Systems Change”
Oct. 8 “Responding to Anxiety in the System”
Oct. 15 “Guided by the Spirit”
Oct. 22 “Fulfilling the Law of Christ”
Oct. 29 “A Letter to the Church”
