On, Tuesday September 15 the Book Club at Broadway UMC will be taking their meeting to the patio at the Central Library in Omaha. Our title for the day is Aldo Leopold's "Sand County Almanac." We will meet at 10 am. From there we plan to stop and walk the labyrinth at First United Methodist Church.  Carpooling from Broadway will be available, so please reach out to me at teresaf@broadwayunitedmethodist.com if you would like a ride. If you wish, there is a Zen Coffee inside the library.

We invite anyone to join. You will especially enjoy us if you find that being in creation brings you in the presence of the Creator. The group regularly meets at 10:00 AM monthly on third Tuesday in the DeLong Lounge.  Occasionally we step outside and find meeting space outside. Conversations are organic as our reading leads us to sharing our own stories and experiences.

If you have any questions or need help finding a book, feel free to contact me at the email above. In case of rain or storms, we will meet in the DeLong Lounge.

Broadway's Community Garden team will be meeting on Wednesday, September 2, 2026 at 10:00 AM in the DeLong Lounge to make seed bombs.  Flower seeds, packaged in recycled paper will be given as gifts to Broadway's Block Party guests. All are welcome to join us.

The team would also appreciate donations of flower seeds. If you have some extra and plan to attend bring it with you. Or, leave seeds at the produce table on Sundays or drop them with the office Monday or Tuesday.

As of last Monday there was a limited number of free tickets available from the Chamber of Commerce.  Stop into their office during their office hours and check availability.

Meet Kinnick behind section 124 before the first pitch. We will sit on the berm so bring a blanket. Tickets can be purchased at the gate or in advance [here].

Werner Park is located at 12356 Ballpark Way, Papillion, NE 68046.

Composting: Please, NO plastic bags or cutlery in the compost that does not state it is compostable. Thank you.

Block Party Planning Team
The team planning this year's Block Party will meet at 11:45 AM on Sunday August 30, 2026 in the Fellowship Hall.  While others fill their potluck plates, the team will go over their final plans.

Women’s Bible Study 
New study title begins on September 2, 2026 at 5:00 PM in the DeLong Lounge. All women are invited to join them as they read and discuss “Living a Chocolate Life” by Deb Burma.

School Supply Collection
Lists for the supplies we are collecting for students in our community and around the world are at the 'teacher's' table in the Welcome Center. Take one and pick up what you can. Bring your gifts back to the church to be sorted and sent out to help student learn.

Block Party Volunteering
Broadway's annual Block Party brings us and our neighbors together to share the best of community. And, we know the best part of Broadway is found in it's people. Just as we greet each other on Sunday mornings, let's expand that greeting by providing hospitality and conversation with the people in our neighborhood. To sign up to help at the Block Party, complete this [form].
