Summer time typically brings a change of rhythms as kids are out of school, the warmer and longer days, and neighbors are actually outside! As a church family we have a number of exciting things happening in July that we wanted to share with everyone!
1. Concordia Neighborhood Concerts in the Park - Every Friday night in the month of July there will be a neighborhood concert in Fern Hill Park. These are an annual tradition and a family friendly environment that is great to interact with others in our neighborhood. Sojourn is proud to be a sponsor of this years concerts and will have a booth set up at three of the concerts with games, face painting, and free bottles of water.
2. Outdoor Movie - We are throwing our first outdoor movie party on Saturday, July 7, at 7pm. We will be showing Kung Fu Panda 3 on the fields behind Alliance Meek, 4039 NE Alberta Ct. Bring your own blankets & chairs. We will provide games prior to the movie and popcorn during the movie.
3. Community BBQ - We are having a free Texas style bbq for the community on Sunday, July 15, at 5pm. We will serve Texas style bbq, sides, and drinks until we run out. We will be in Wilshire Park, NE 33rd Avenue.
4. Kids Camp - We are hosting our first ever Kids Camp July 23-27! The camp will consist of a variety of activities for kids to have fun and interact with others in the community. There will be sports, group games, and crafts. The camp is for ages 5+ and costs $25 for the first child; and $10 per additional child. All of the proceeds will go to benefit our neighborhood school, Vernon. To register click here.
5. Join Us - Starting in July we will gather weekly on Sundays at 5pm at 4828 NE 33rd Ave. Our church family gatherings are on Sunday evenings and consist of fellowship, prayer, worship, and teaching. We also gather weekly around tables to live out our core values. We typically share a meal together, celebrate stories, bear one another's burdens, pray for one another, and serve our city together. Our current Table meets on Thursday nights at 6:30pm near Alberta Arts District. For more information email info@sojournpdx.org.
