EVENTS
Mission in Motion
Ash Wednesday — February 18, 2025
4:30–6:00 p.m. • Graceland Gym
Mission in Motion is a high-energy, hands-on Ash Wednesday experience designed especially for elementary-age kids and their families. As we begin the season of Lent, K–5th graders will roll up their sleeves and serve alongside friends by learning about local needs and partnering with Twin Cities mission organizations. It’s a powerful way to turn faith into action and show kids that even small hands can make a big difference. No cost to participate. All families welcome. Come serve, learn, and move with purpose together.
MS & HS Help with Mission in Motion
Ash Wednesday — February 18
4:15–6:15 p.m. • Graceland Gym
Be part of this meaningful evening as we live out our call to be the hands and feet of Jesus in the world. We’re looking for volunteers to help guide kids through the hands-on mission projects at each station.
As a volunteer, you will:
• Arrive in the gym and check in at your assigned station
• Review the station instructions
• Help kids complete a project that serves others in need
• Assist with clean-up at the end of the event
Thank you for helping make this powerful service experience possible!
