What is our experience of giving and receiving help in community? Join the Pendle Hill maintenance team and spiritual nurturer Bob Denison for a weekend of fun, service, and fellowship around work projects to prepare Pendle Hill for the fall. Projects will be weather-dependent and may include outdoor painting projects, work on the grounds, sprucing up the outside of buildings, and work of the household. Learn new skills or practice old ones. We will worship together and have worship-sharing opportunities to explore the role of service in our lives. There is work for all levels of strength and ability, with most work being medium to heavy.
$100/private room; $75/shared room; $50/commuter.
Limit of 15.
