Second Session

Second Session is back after our summer break!
First up will be an "Ask the Pastor" series. During this 6-week cycle, we will explore theological questions/topics of your choosing!
Please submit to Amos for consideration.
Newcomer Lunch
Sunday, September 29th
Whether you have been coming to the Vineyard for a week, a month or several months, if you've never been to a Newcomer Lunch, this lunch gathering on Sunday, September 29th is for you!
Join us in the cafe after Second Session - we'll gather from about 12:30pm to 2pm. Share a meal, hear more about the Vineyard, meet some new friends, connect with our team, and ask any questions you may have about the church. We can't wait to see you! Childcare can be available - please RSVP promptly if that's a need so that we can arrange volunteers.
Sign up here by the end of the day on Monday, September 23rd to help us plan!
All-Church Hayride & Bonfire at Highland Orchards
Saturday, October 5th - 6:30pm-9pm
Join us for some fall fun for all ages as we enjoy a hayride and bonfire together at Highland Orchards in West Chester on Saturday, October 5th!
​
We'll meet at Highland Orchards at 6:30pm to get everyone checked in and settled for the evening. Then we'll go on a 45-minute leisurely hayride around the orchards to the campfire area where we'll have an hour to relax, make s'mores and enjoy time together, and we'll wrap up with a 15-minute hayride back to the parking area.
​
BYO blankets/chairs and water - we'll provide the s'mores stuff!
​
Save the date and look for a "text back to RSVP" text coming soon!
​​
Spots are limited and we'll start a waitlist if needed. If you need to change your RSVP, please contact Stef at stef[at]csvineyard.org. We'll send out a reminder with parking details closer to the event.
​
(A few things to know (especially for parents with littles): Highland Orchards has no bathrooms at the campfire area, and there is no private access to the area or opportunity to leave separately from the group - the hayride will get us there and back.) ​
​
Church Potluck
Sunday, October 6th
Join us for a church potluck lunch on the first Sunday of every month. Our October potluck will be on Sunday, October 6th, starting around 12:30pm, following Second Session, VineyardKids and VineyardYouth.
Bring some food to share (whether homemade or storebought), drop it off in the kitchen before church, bring it out after, and stay to eat, catch up and connect in the cafe.
​
Looking forward to sharing a meal together!
EF: Foundation Intensive
Fri, Oct 18th & Sat, Oct 19th
The Emotionally Focused: Foundation Intensive is a two-day experience that invites each person into a life on mission with God – to join Him in the work of reconciliation and restoration in all areas of life: home, work, and play. You will become aware of patterns in your life that block you from living a missional life - such as wounds, unmet needs, meanings, vows, and ways of being. Then you'll be able to process your learning through contemplation, journaling, and facilitated small groups. The goal is to begin to discover and live into your true self in Jesus! We need each other for this important and life-giving work, so come alongside others who are on the journey!
