Another Zoom meeting from 6-7 p.m. on Oct. 10 will be help for all adult leaders to ensure everyone is on the same page.

SUMMARY:SeaTac Clergy Day Apart: A Day of Play
DESCRIPTION:Clergy of the SeaTac District are invited to a day away from your usual ministry setting in the form of a a play date with colleagues! Several of your peers have planned a day of renewal that differs from clergy gatherings you may be used to: \n\nThere will not be any formally offered education\, formation\, or learning\, only a brief grounding prayer and space. After that\, you are welcome to invite conversations on topics of your choosing\, and you are also welcome to put in earphones and be an introvert if that is what play looks like for you.\nWe will not be meeting in a church. This is to help us all fully participate and receive in a less work-related environment\, where we will likely avoid going into a professional autopilot. It’s a space for open-mindedness and relaxation.\nThis play is designed to be opt-in/opt-out friendly. Following your renewal needs\, you can participate or not.\n\nYour $10 registration will include communal lunch in a food court with a variety of options and a free-style painting project. Click here to register.
