Safe Families Info Meeting
We are proud to have a new outreach partnership with Safe Families for Children!
Help us welcome Betsy Borns, Director for NE Wisconsin, as she visits with us in the Pathways lobby on Sunday, June 15.
Then, we invite you to an informational meeting the following weekend. Please stop by room 208 on Sunday, June 22 at 9:40AM for more information on this worthwhile outreach program to see how you can help keep kids safe and supported!
What is Safe Families for Children?
Every year, several million children in the U.S. find themselves living in a home overwhelmed by a crisis. Poverty, loss of job or a home can often result in children being neglected or worse. Compound those issues with many families living in isolation with no community to fall back on or stand in the gap.
This is where we come in. Safe Families for Children provides a safe home for children and a supportive community for parents while they get back on their feet. Parents are provided with the space and support they need to address the issues impacting their ability to provide the best environment for their children. This network of relationships and resources keeps children from entering the foster care system and ultimately helps keep families together. The goal is family reunification.
There are many ways to get involved with the Safe Families for Children movement. We believe everyone has a role to play in helping keep children safe and families supported! Will you be a part of the solution?
High School Preview Night
We invite all current 8th graders to join us on Sunday, May 25 from 6:30-8PM for our Pathways Students Preview night!
Middle School Preview Night
Pathways Students Middle School will be hosting a preview night for current 5th graders on May 14. This is a great opportunity to see what our Middle School ministry is all about as we look forward to the next school year.

If you are a parent of a 5th grader who is not involved in ROOTS but who would like to participate in one or both of these nights, please email jake.collins@pathwayschurch.us.

Vida Collection Drive

We will be hosting a diaper collection drive for several items that Vida Clinic is in need of on Sunday, March 16 & 23.
They are in need of newborn diapers, diapers sizes 4, 5, and 6 and other items.
All items collected go straight to Vida to help stock their shelves full and provide support to men and women who need to feel supported while raising children and/or expecting their first child.
Please drop all items off at the table in the church lobby or church office building (Mon-Thur | 8AM-4PM)
If you are interested in learning more about volunteer opportunities please contact Emily at emilysverhagen@gmail.com.
Our local partner, Vida, passionately advocates for good health and well-being of women and their babies. Vida’s main objective is to walk with women through trials and tribulations by offering hope and compassion. Vida continue to expand and improve our services so that no man or woman feels alone and unsupported when facing challenges related to an unplanned pregnancy or parenting an infant or small children under challenging circumstances.
Child Dedication Class
A child is a God-given trust (Psalm 127:3) and Child Dedication is a ceremony that signifies a parent’s commitment and pledge to uphold that trust by raising their child in a Christian home and church where he or she can come to know, love and serve Jesus.
It also signifies a commitment by the people of Pathways Church to provide a loving, biblical community that supports and prays for your family.
To help prepare families for this commitment, parents are required to attend a child dedication class.
In this class, you will learn:
what the Bible says about child dedication
the difference between child dedication and infant baptism
and how the church will come alongside to support your parenting journey.
Please complete the registration form below and indicate the class date you prefer:
Sunday March 9 during the 10AM service
Monday, March 17 at 6:30PM
We look forward to our next child dedication, scheduled for May 11!
Please contact alyssa.llamas@pathwayschurch.us with questions.
Lent Service
Join us for a special Lent Service!
Lent is a 40 day period that leads up to Easter.
It gives us a great opportunity to carve out some time to cultivate our souls so that Easter takes on a different depth of meaning for us through the work that God has been doing in us.
Check out this book - “40 Days of Decrease by Dr. Alicia Britt Chole."
Each day has a short devotional and a passage of scripture for you and invites you to give up something for the day.
It's not just giving up things like designer coffee or your time on social media. It's mostly areas that are heart fast — like apathy, unforgiveness, resentment or comparing ourselves to others.
If we decrease in these areas, we can increase our connection with Christ!
During these next six weeks leading up to Easter, we're going to be walking through some issues of our heart that need to decrease and downshift so that Christ can increase in our lives!
So to prepare for the next week,
1) pop this book in your shopping cart
2) come to our special Lent Service on March 5 at 6:30PM
3) and get ready to begin our new series “Downshift” which will begin on Sunday, March 9 at our regular 8:30 and 10AM services!
