CONDUCT A JEWELRY SEARCH THIS SUMMER!
We know you'd rather spend time outdoors when
the weather is warm and sunny, but cleaning out closets and drawers is a great
rainy day activity.
We've started our
fair jewelry collection early this year to give us more time to sort, clean and
prepare your donations for sale at our annual church fair in November. If you, a
neighbor, relative, friend or co-worker have jewelry to part with, this is a
perfect place to donate your cast-offs and benefit our church.
We accept estate jewelry, fine jewelry, and costume jewelry of any
style or type. Just put your pieces in a clear plastic bag and leave them in the
church office, or contact: Elaine Henriksen -781-344-0789; eshenriksen@verizon.net, or Dee Hayes - 508-238-1296.

SUNDAY
MORNING PRAYER SERVICE
9:00 am
July 1 and 8
in the
Outdoor Chapel
Begin your Sunday in the cool of a summer
morning under a shade tree, taking in the beauty of God's magnificent creation,
listening to the sounds of nature,
and lifting the joys and concerns on your
heart to our Divine Creator.
On Sunday, July 1 and 8, beginning at 9 am,
we will hold an informal prayer service in our Outdoor Chapel,
which will last approximately 40
minutes.
If this prayer service is well attended and received,
we will
continue it through the summer,
led by lay members of the
congregation.

sold.
