Sunday, December 5 11:30 AM – 11:45 AM | In-Person Drive/Walk-Through Communion and PrayersALL are Welcome! for Prayers and Communion
Drive through, walk up, skate by, ride your bike – we will read the confession, Fr Howie will offer absolution, and we will read the Lord’s Prayer (from a card to be provided), and then the Host will be offered as we do presently in church – in small plastic cups. Masks and hand sanitizer will be in use. The normal assumption will be that those coming to receive the Eucharist will have attended the 9:00 a.m. service virtually. 276 S College Ave, Newark, DE 19711, USA (276 S College Ave, Newark, DE 19711, USA) |

Sunday, December 5 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM | UD Ballroom Dancers- public class Meets in the Great Hall
Classes are $15 for students and $35 for non-students (for the whole four-week session).
What if I have no dance experience? Don't worry, most people are beginners. We tailor each class to fit the level of the participants.
What do I wear? Any comfortable clothing will do. We do ask that you wear comfortable shoes that are securely attached to your feet. Anything that has a tendency to slip off is potentially dangerous. For women, heels are alright if you are comfortable in them, but under 3" is preferred. If you don't feel comfortable wearing heels, flats or sneakers are fine.
How do I register for a public class? Just show up 10 to 15 minutes early for the first class of the session. The beginning of each session can be found on the calendar. We will ask you to submit your payment and fill out a short contact information sheet for our records in case of emergency cancellations.
If I come with a partner will I be dancing with him/her the entire time? We encourage rotation of partners during class because it helps the learning process; however, it is not required.

Thursday, December 9 6:30 AM – 5:00 PM | trip to NYCWe will be taking the 6:30 train from Wilmington to Penn Station. Then- off to the Met cloisters. The exhibit we are going to see is called "Spain, 1000-1200: Art at the Frontiers of Faith." It brings together Christian, Muslim, and Jewish objects from that period to show how the meeting of three great religions influenced all of them. And for practical reference, the exhibit is at the Cloisters, the Met's medieval satellite on the Upper West Side of Manhattan rather than at the Met's main building on Central Park. Then we will take Amtrack back to Wilmington, arriving at 5pm. |
