This weekend in Bloomington, IN

Men gather at Unity Baptist Church for prayer, fellowship, encouragement, and a shared breakfast, with a focus on growing in faith and strengthening one another in Christ. Open to all men, from longtime members to first-time visitors, the gathering offers time to connect with others and be encouraged through prayer and conversation. The spirit of the morning reflects Proverbs 27:17, “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.”

An RSVP is required to attend. Participation is limited to SCC members and to guests who are accompanied by an SCC member.

At The Sterling Butterfly, this advanced jewelry class focuses on creating a sterling silver pendant that features a rose cut stone in a framed bezel setting. Participants will design and fabricate the backplate, form the bezel, and set the stone. All tools and materials are supplied. Bring a notebook and magnification to comfortably see fine details, and wear closed toe shoes for safety. A lunch break is included, and lunch is on your own, either packed or from downtown eateries. Prerequisites include completion of basic tool skills and soldering classes or the jewelry intensive, and comparable experience from elsewhere may also qualify. The fee is $150. Refunds are available with at least one week of notice, and later cancellations are refunded only if the spot is filled. Open to students 18 and older, with minors permitted by prior approval and parental consent.

Unraveled Quilt Store’s Quiltathon is a marathon day of sewing that fuels local giving. Participants collect pledges from friends and family, either by the hour or as a single donation, then set up their machines at tables in the parking lot beneath a large tent and spend the day stitching for a cause. Bring your own sewing gear and projects. Unraveled provides the tables, the tent, and plenty to eat and drink, including lunch, snacks, beverages, and dinner. Sewing continues throughout the day and into the night. Funds raised support Compass Rose Farm Sanctuary, which began as a potbellied pig rescue and now offers lifelong refuge to more than 250 animals such as pigs, horses, donkeys, sheep, goats, chickens, turkeys, and guinea fowl, with an emphasis on quality nutrition, veterinary care, and safe, comfortable living spaces. Support also extends to The Sanctuary at Browning Farms, a 110-acre farm animal rescue in Spencer, Indiana, that welcomes animals in need, provides necessary medical care, and shares education on responsible pet care with rural communities. Friskies dry and wet cat food donations are also appreciated, and the sanctuary goes through about a case each day. There is a $35 participant fee to help cover the tent and meals. The store does not profit from this fundraiser, and all money raised benefits the community. To register, call 812-821-0309, then start gathering pledges. If attending is not possible, sponsoring a quilter or donating cat food are thoughtful ways to contribute.

The eighth annual Brown County Jeep Poker Run highlights a large parade of Jeeps that typically spans about 3 miles and includes roughly 170 vehicles. Tickets go on sale soon.

Share a Tuscan-inspired brunch board for two priced at $35, with drinks not included. The spread features poached eggs simmered in marinara, finished with freshly grated parmesan and served with toasted tomato basil focaccini for dipping. A northern Italian style local sausage adds savory notes with orange zest, garlic, roasted fennel, and a hint of red pepper. A rustic bread and tomato salad brings together crusty sourdough cubes, ripe tomatoes, English cucumbers, shaved red onion, and fresh mozzarella, tossed in an Italian vinaigrette, then topped with torn basil and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. There are ricotta-topped crostini brushed with olive oil and crowned with slow roasted grapes that take on a caramelized sweetness. For something sweet, enjoy an orange scented ricotta cake lightly dusted with powdered sugar and finished with strawberries soaked in pét-nat sparkling wine. Consider a mimosa or a cup of French press coffee to complement the meal. This offering is in Spencer, Indiana.

A live music performance will take place.
