The search committee worked long and hard to find our new Minister.  The Reverend Jennifer Legg will begin as our Pastor as of Monday, November 1st. Her first Sunday will be November 7^th.  We will celebrate Holy Communion and observe All Saints Day.  We look forward to years ahead with Pastor Jenn.

October 31 is Hallowe’en, and it’s on a Sunday this year. We WON’T be celebrating Hallowe’en in our church service, but one of our youngest disciples has a fantastic idea she wants to share with our congregation. She’s calling it HOWL-owe’en. The emphasis is on HOWL.

No, it won’t include ghosts or goblins or other things that go bump in the night!---but it will include the thoughtful presentation of a young person about God’s love for the created world and how we can care for it. Get ready for a challenge. You won’t want to miss this service. See you on October 31.

We have been assembling a list of those loved ones in our congregation who have died since last November.  If you have a name that you wish to include in this solemn time of remembrance, please notify the church office no later than October 31 (518-767-2243).

As we prepare for the arrival of our new pastor, we have begun to worship at 10:30 am (one half hour later than before). You are invited to arrive at 10:00 for a time of fellowship with our church family. Come and enjoy a beverage and continental breakfast -- juice, coffee and breads will be offered. If you would like to host one of these morning treats, please contact Donna Lasher.
