Bowling Night

Thursday, November 20 at 7:30pm, the 20s/30s group at MAPC are going to Harlem Lanes for a bowling night!

Harlem Lanes is located at 7th Ave and 126th Street.

If you are interested in coming or would just like more information, please contact me at mapc.20s30s@gmail.com.

Lunch Tomorrow

We will be having lunch tomorrow at the church following the 11:15 service.

Meet us in the coffee hour, and we'll head up together.

NY Cares Day!

I just got home from New York Cares Day 2008. The 20s/30s group had a team this year, and we had a lot of fun cleaning and painting at JHS 117 in the Bronx.

After moving boxes of books from the teacher's lounge to the science and social studies classrooms, we went to work painting in the school yard!

Yesterday's Lunch

Our plans to go to Tang Tang following the 11:15 service this morning were foiled when we discovered it had been closed by the health department. Oops! So we went to Soup Burg instead.

Next Sunday!

We will be going out to lunch together following the 11:15 am service on Sunday, September 28. We'll meet up the church lobby during coffee hour (you'll be able to recognize us as the people in our 20s and 30s) and will head out from there.

If you've never been to an event before, please know that newcomers are always welcomed. We look forward to seeing you!

Summer's Sunset!

I just got home from our first event of the season about an hour ago, and I think it's safe to say we had a great time. Old friends and new came together to kick off what I'm sure will be a great year!

Here are a few photos from tonight's event (taken primarily by Susan):

For those who missed tonight's event, we look forward to seeing you next time!

September 20: The First Event of the Season!

The 20s/30s Group has had a break for the summer and is looking forward to a fresh start this fall. We’ll kick off the program year with a special Summer’s Sunset wine and cheese evening, Saturday, September 20, from 6 to 9 pm in the Roof Garden. We’re also planning a few brunch dates after the 11:15 am service on Sundays and other fall events, so watch for future announcements! Newcomers are welcome!!! The 20s/30s encourage all members and friends who fall within this age group to attend, whether you’ve participated in this group previously or not. If you have questions about the 20s/30s group, please contact Megan at mapc.20s30s@gmail.com

Welcome!

In an effort to improve communications for the 20s/30s group at Madison Avenue Presbyterian Church (aka MAPC 20s/30s), I've created this blog to post updates on upcoming events.

So check back often to find out what's going on!
