T-Shirt Folding Party
One of our favorite moments each year is our annual “T-shirt folding party.” This day ties together all the work preparing for the Summer Friendship Gatherings and informs us it will be here sooner than we think. We have folded and packed 600 T-shirt ready to be delivered to our 8 Gatherings.
Our theme this summer will be “Rise Up!” We will learn how we can Rise Up and Hope, Rise Up and Believe and Rise Up and Live for Jesus.
These Gatherings are great opportunities for our friends with intellectual disabilities to build relationships and become part of a Christian community in a Friendship group that meets September through May.
The first Gathering will start June 10th and continue every week through July except for the 4th of July week. We are past registration cutoff but will still take registrations. It doesn’t matter if you are part of a Friendship group or hearing about it for the first time.
There are also opportunities for volunteers to be part of this ministry. If you would like more information, you can visit our website, https://connection-ministries.org/ or call our office, 317-646-5067.
If you are a volunteer in a Friendship group, but have not yet registered, or someone new and interested in coming to a Gathering, you can register at https://connection-ministries.org/applications/friend-with-disability-and-volunteer-registration/
We hope you will “Rise Up” and join us for one of Gatherings listed below and pray with us that God will bear much fruit this summer!
