WEAVERS ARE…kids in 4th and 5th grade.
Such an amazing age! Just as a textile weaver would work their yarn into colorful and complex patterns, so are our young people at this age. We look to engage Weavers to take the big emotions and big ideas they are experiencing and connect them to the world around them. Weavers spend time together developing their sense of self and what they care deeply about, sharing and learning from their peers and mentors, and asking questions about the mysteries of what is bigger than themselves!
Weavers find ways to connect! We need you – because when you show up – it matters! You make things more… Interesting - Curious - Fun - Creative - Caring - Silly - Human – and Connected!
WEAVERS on Sunday Mornings
Let’s Get Messy! Six weeks exploring how to love ourselves and our neighbors even when love gets messy using the messy fun of science to help us!
WEAVERS Once a Month
What’s a Mash-Up?
In musical terms it is a creative blending of two or more pre-existing works or songs, for us it’s taking two different tween and teen groups and blending them together to create a time for connection, leadership, and fun! The Fray Middle Schoolers meet every Thursday evening throughout the school year and once a month the 4th and 5th grade Weavers join in to get in the practice of being part of the group. Mash-Ups are held on the first Thursday evening of the month (during the school year) and are often out and about someplace where we can be active and accommodate our energetic group!
Watch for opportunities to Mash Up in the Fall!
I love this opportunity to combine an incredible Vampire movie set in 1930s Mississippi Delta, historical and spiritual context and a dinner table of people to process and learn with!
