Week of October 8, 2023

This photo is from October 2023. :) 

Vision Weekend:  Don't you want to be a part of planning for our church's future path?  What's important to you?  We want your input and ideas -- come gather in Trumbull Hall!

Saturday morning, Oct. 21
9-1:00 ish - We'll get some coffee, juice, and small "breakfast bites" to take to the tables. Chris will lead 3 "Visioning" sessions where everyone will be encouraged to share with their table group.

1:00 Stay for lunch and informal fellowship!  A big variety of sandwiches etc. coming from Cutting's

Sunday, Oct. 22
10:00 service, with a Vision focus

Potluck lunch after the service (This is a true "potluck" - no signing up; just bring your favorite, or come with your appetite!  There's always plenty.)

See the bulletin board in the hall between the sanctuary and Trumbull Hall to sign up to bring "breakfast bites," or contact Laurie Wadsworth.

Tech Sunday 2023:  It's time for another Sunday morning tech session!  Join our skilled cadre of nerds and tech geeks after this Sunday morning's service (October 8) for a demonstration of our livestream and tips on how to use it via your favorite device/platform.  One of my own favorites is shown below. ;)  We are including Zoom access to the Fall 2023 Tech Sunday for those who wish to join us "from away" (as they say).  Please contact the church office if you'd like a copy of the Zoom meeting link. 

Fall Fest:  Our annual "Fall Fest" is a week away (Saturday October 14) -- and it is not just for kids! This year's fest will conclude with a contra dance, and all are invited!  Amelia Ihlo notes that the fest organizers are looking for musicians to play at the contra dance.  If you're intrigued, Ken Pelton has the music.  Also, please contact Amelia if you can provide some refreshments for the dance!
