Ron's Bowling Event



Last night the CHS young adults had our November event, a bowl-a-thon and canned food drive at Ron's Bowling in Hyde Park. About 10 CHS-ers turned out for the event, and helped make it a really great time to relax, reconnect and most importantly--take part in some very competitive candlepin bowling.



The high score for the night went to Miss Cady Lespinasse, who bowled a gorgeous 84. But, since that 84 was in the first frame, and we had some more folks show up for the second frame, we decided that whoever won the second frame would win the night's fabulous grand prize: a $10 Target gift card.



After a heated game, delicious bowls of Ron's 'world-famous' ice cream and (not-as-world-famous) pizza, Irmine Mode, CHS parishioner of over 8 years won the evening and the grand prize. This was a surprise ending, since Irmine had never even bowled before--or so she says...



All-in-all, an excellent evening. We're excited for our next event coming up in December. Let us know if you have any ideas, and watch the wires for news!

Blog Launch

Here it is, the 1st CHS Young Adult's blog post!
  • What is the CHS Young Adult's Blog? A website especially for the 20-somethings and 30-somethings of Church of the Holy Spirit, Mattapan.
  • Why do we have a blog? Because here, we'll have a place to post pictures, our news about events, and to tell our stories.
  • What can we do with a blog? We can link to facebook, subscribe to an RSS feed and pass on the link to our 20-something friends and 30-something friends who are looking to get involved. We can stay connected to each other, and also reach out more effectively.
  • Who uses the blog? All CHS Young Adults! We can all post comments, we can all subscribe to the RSS feed, and we can all read the stories.
  • Who writes the blog? The stories are written by members of the Young Adult leadership team. If you're interested in writing for the blog, or in the leadership team, speak with Yadira Martinez or Kendyll Hillegas.
Watch for the post on our Fall Young Adult Bowl-a-Thon and Canned Food Drive, coming later this week!
