CGY - Parents Talking Tech with Grit and Grace
Oct

CGY - Parents Talking Tech with Grit and Grace

Teens are growing up in a world designed to capture their attention. Both theologically and sociologically, we become what we put our faces in front of and it’s easy for parents to feel powerless. However, technology doesn’t have to control your children (or you!). Join other parents asking the same questions: How can we guide our kids to use screens well, live intentionally, and cultivate hearts and minds in God’s ways? Come explore practical, faith-rooted approaches to help your teen engage technology with wisdom, care, and resilience—while building rhythms that nurture your whole family. We may not all walk away with the same applications, but we can have the conversation! 

Join us in the Sanctuary during CGY!

The Sanctuary Course

The Sanctuary Course is a small-group opportunity designed to reduce stigma, raise awareness, and engage individuals in meaningful conversations about mental health and faith. Each of the eight Sanctuary sessions examines a key mental health topic accompanied by Scriptural insight. Through exercises in listening, safety, and engagement, participants will come to better understand mental health challenges within a biblical context, identify and deal with stigma, discover self-help methods to reduce stress, and learn the strength of education and group support. 

The course will meet for 8 weeks, starting on Oct 5th.

There is no cost for signing up, but registration will close after the first two weeks.

Ages young adult and up.

Any questions regarding the course can be directed towards Gregg Jennings at greg@commongroundva.com.

You're invited to learn the simple and meaningful practice of baking fresh focaccia bread for communion at Common Ground. These hands-on classes (attend just one) are open to anyone—no baking experience needed—and are for those interested in joining a team that will make communion bread moving forward.

Each class is about 1.5 hours and limited to *only 5 participants—so hurry and grab your spot!

All participants will receive a starter kit of bread flour, yeast, and salt—a gift from Common Ground to help you begin baking at home.

In September, we’ll open signups to join an ongoing Communion Bread Team through the CG App.

Whether you're a seasoned baker or just curious, come join us in preparing something that feeds both body and soul.
