We've switched gears this fall and decided to host our annual Genesis Vacation at Covenant Pines here in the Twin Cities as a STAYCATION.
Register HERE: https://genesiscov.churchcenter.com/registrations/events/547973. All experiences are free of charge, but we’d like to know how many people to provide supplies for.
We might not be flying over the lake in a giant swing, but we think it'll be fun and sweet, quirky and refreshing as only Genesis events can!
And, we are very mindful of the current pandemic and want you to know we have crafted these experiences with everyone's safety in mind. We ask for all attendees to follow essential COVID-19 safety measures (physical distancing, hand washing, stay home if you're ill, masks, etc.).
If a change in time/location is necessary or if weather necessitates changing the events below, you will be notified. Otherwise we hope you'll sign up for as many events or experiences as you are interested in.

MUSIC ON THE LAWN
Music on the lawn starts at 5:30-6:30 at Elim and will be led by Will Lee and Genesis friends. Bring a chair or blanket and a mask. Due to the Elim COVID safety plan, we cannot enter the building, but we do have a portapotty onsite for our Genesis folks. We will have hand sanitizer and new disposable masks for those that need it.
