Summer Hours noted at bottom of email Click Here to Donate Today to MSUMC ABC's of Faith Beginning July 7th Summer Worship Hours:  9:30 AM, no Sunday School (as of July 7) Watch Live There's lots going on at MSUMC... new groups using the building while the UU church is being renovated this summer. Vacation Bible Camp is a fun adventure with God teaching kids (and youth and adults) about trust and wisdom and a little bit of sign language. And we've had several deaths recently that the congregation has come together to surround the families in grief and support. We're glad to have the Joyful Shepherds leading this charge to care for and nurture our most vulnerable members and their families. We look forward to hearing about how MainStreeters are on the MOVE this summer. Remember to look for signs of the Spirit's stirring wherever you may roam and to share your experience with us. If you want an ALPHABET LETTER for our summer series on the ABCs of Faith, grab one off the front pew... or create your own alphabet poem. (A is for Aldersgate or alpine or adventure, B is for bats or beautiful sunsets, etc). We're excited for the alphabet soup of possibilities. Rev Kelly ELSEWHERE The efforts to improve security and accessibility of the building for the groups that need its ministry nears completion also. Watch for the external doors to be re-keyed soon. Contact the office if you haven't switched your physical external door key for an electronic credential. Keep all your internal door keys --those aren't changing. Click Here for Sunday's Bulletin Tribute to Richard Eaton   Richard Eaton passed away on June 16, 2024 at Premier Rehab and Healthcare, formerly known as Greenbrier, Nashua NH.  Richard was a beloved member of Main St. UMC, Nashua NH.  Though blind, he eagerly participated in activities at church and in the Nashua area.  He was a gentle quiet spoken man with a wide smile and twinkly blue eyes.  For many years, he was helped by a black lab Service Dog until the aging dog was retired.  Richard faced multiple health conditions with quiet acceptance and determination to be as engaged as possible for as long as possible with the people he knew as companions on life's journey.  He particularly enjoyed visits with the toy poodles of his church, one of whom was blind like he was.  Though we will miss his physical presence, his spirit lingers with us fostering assurance that God's love and care are abundantly attuned for our highest good. Happy Memories! Carolyn Ekle Read Richard's Obituary Here The Campbells took us with them to Hampton Beach for the sand castle competition.
