Announcements - 8/8/2010

BIRTHRIGHT RECRUITING VOLUNTEERS

A New Volunteer Coffee will be held at Birthright on September 22nd at 9:30 am. Birthright provides pro-life counseling services, pregnancy testing, and practical assistance to women in need.

In their newsletter for the Portsmouth location at 323 Islington Street, Birthright shares these words of encouragment to those who would consider volunteering:

All you need is a willingness to listen, a commitment to life, loving the woman and her baby, and a desire to help those in need without judgment.”

EPC was mentioned in the recent newsletter for your contributions of baby clothing and diapers. Also noted were Hope Presbyterian in Portsmouth and four Catholic parishes including St. Michael's in Exeter.


COUSER MOVE AND NEW CASTLE BEACH DAY BOTH A SUCCESS

Many thanks to all those who helped with the Cousers' move last Saturday. Everything was in good order, making the efforts of our team of helpers from the church relatively swift and painless. Steph Rohrdanz also reports that the families that came out for the day at the beach had an enjoyable time together.


PAINTING NEXT TWO SATURDAYS AT THE CHURCH

Would you like to be part of a small group of church painters gathering at the church from 10 through noon for the next two Saturdays (8/7 and 8/14)? We are trying to get the foyer done in time for Abby Meadows' wedding on August 21st. Painting days are a great opportunity to spend time together and to get something practical done for the church. Thanks for all your help!
