AN OPPORTUNITY FOR FUN AND FELLOWSHIP
Dinner, Flashlight Corn Maze & Sleepover
September 20-21
St. Thomas Church, 301 St. Thomas Rd., Lancaster, will be hosting a Diocesan Family Event the weekend of September 20-21, and you’re invited! Here are the details:
Who can come? Anyone and everyone. Children, teens, moms and dads, aunts, uncles, grandparents and grandkids. Youth younger than 9th grade must be accompanied by a parent.
Do I have to stay for the whole event? No. You can come for dinner and the corn maze and then go home to sleep in your own bed. Of course, you’ll miss the adventure of sleeping in the church.
What are the overnight accommodations? You’re welcome to bring sleeping bags, air mattresses, blankets, pillows and your teddy bear and sleep in the church. ALSO, you can pitch a tent and camp on our lawn. OR you can bring your camper and camp in our parking lot. If you camp outside, you must do it as a family unit.
How much will this cost? $15/person. If this presents a hardship, let us know and arrangements will be made.
How do I sign up? You must register for this event on the diocesan website. The deadline for registering is Sunday, Sept. 14.
