Generations Together: Nothing New?
Posted by Liz Perraud at
I love (almost) nothing more than reading an article or a book about bringing the generations together. I couldn’t wait to see “The Intern” with Robert De Niro and Anne Hathaway—a movie about generational issues in the workplace (great premise, kind of dumb delivery). My passion is connecting generations through the church but other settings are fascinating and interesting to me too. So with excitement I opened an email from Alban with the title “Churches Need to Improve their Generational IQ.” I was all ready to share the article on Facebook or tweet it and comment with “Yes!” or “Indeed!”...

No giant talking Yoda under the tree?
Posted by Liz Perraud at
With my sons in their 20s, Christmas shopping and gift giving are different than when they were little. Money? Gift cards? Dinners out together? A new coat? Please tell me what you want (or need)! For the past several years, I’ve put “experiences” on my Christmas list when they ask what I want (or need). These experiences are time with them (and our daughters-in-law for the two who are married). I make them give me something on Christmas morning that tells me what idea they’ve come up with. There’s no just telling me about the idea. I want the certificate,...

Who says LOGOS is just for kids?
Posted by Liz Perraud at
Carole Witt, Opequon Presbyterian Church, Winchester, Va. Officially LOGOS is for children and youth, Kindergarten-12th grade. But we really know that LOGOS is for kids of all ages. High school seniors and senior citizens, too! Calling older adults to a LOGOS staff brings true balance to the program and makes it complete. These incredible older adults add tremendous value through their gifts as greeters, snack providers, transportation providers, homework helpers, kitchen team members, Bible teachers and table parents. Older adults offer sincere wisdom, a sense of security, laughter, patience and peace to LOGOS participants. In return, children often give older adults heartwarming,...
