Join us Sundays

Each week from Jan 8 - Feb 19th we

will present a worship series to help you

shine a light on the blahs!

How do you put your faith in action? in your body? If you value kindness, you might smile at a store clerk or take a casserole to a co-worker who is struggling (like Laura Colianno did this week). If you value generosity, you might embody that value with tipping 20% or more. If compassion is your thing, you might offer a coat or warm socks to those in need.

This Sunday is the Youth fundraiser called Souper Bowl of Caring, where the youth group raises funds to ensure no one's bowl goes without soup. Several of our youth volunteer at the Nashua Soup Kitchen and Shelter so they are embodying their faith by helping those who are hungry. You can bring in cash (or checks marked NSKS) for their donation pots this Sunday. OR the NSKS needs peanut butter right now, so bring in a jar. Oh, and you might want to bring some ear plugs for this particular fundraiser -- the youth make quite a loud appeal for contributions.

Meeting Wed. Feb. 15, 7 PM

Virtual only via Google meets

February is Black History Month and since I will be attending the Anti Racism Training with Pastor Kelly this Saturday, I thought I could present information to our group. There are also a couple of very interesting but short videos for us to watch. Our meeting will be virtual only via google meets. March should be warmer and lighter and we will start meeting in person again. All are welcome!

Thank you,

Pam Breniser

We are excited that more people have joined our team for the Nor'ester on Sunday, Feb 26 after service (noon after a quick lunch). The deadline for our team is quickly approaching, so use the button below to JOIN our team! It's always fun and challenging with stops along the way and exercises (and social media assignments) that relate to their ministries. OR donate to the cause of helping the United Way support all the wonderful non-profit agencies in town. Each of us needs to raise at least $50. On donations to MSUMC, mark Nor'easter or put our team name: Frosty Frogs! You can donate using the button below as well! There is a DRIVE option as well and they suggest following the 1/2 Marathon Route for that, so if you want to sign up and DRIVE the route, that would also help the cause…..

As the community may or may not know, Nashua Soup Kitchen and Shelter is now running a temporary warming shelter at 2 Quincy Street. It is open 24 hours during cold and inclement weather, so they are going through a LOT of warming drinks, and are serving more folks at breakfast. There is an immediate need for the following items:

FEBRUARY 16, 2023 DATE MOVED - AGAIN!
NEXT PLANNING BOARD HEARING

Pastor Kristy and Nancy Long have continued to attend visibility events coordinated by GSOP to educate the community about the asphalt plant proposal for Temple Street. This plant will be harmful to the many neighbors near the site, who will be subjected to pollution, noise, and a significant increase in asphalt truck traffic on pedestrian routes. The Planning Board hearing has been tabled again until February 16th.

We would appreciate those who are willing to write letters to the planning board to please do so at pb@nashuanh.gov. If you are willing to speak against the plant at the next meeting (at this time both zoom and in person are available), please reach out to Pastor Kristy for more information on how to do so and what criteria are most important to the Planning Board.
