Sheffield Farmers Market 25th Anniversary

The 25th Anniversary Celebration at the Sheffield Farmers Market is in the books! And was it ever fabulous and fun! Tractors, tractors everywhere! (Thank you farmers for sharing during such a busy season.) A large crowd enjoyed toe tapping music, fresh strawberry shortcake, ice cream sandwiches from Modern Milk Bar, community groups, and a plethora of vendors bringing fresh produce, flowers and joy to Sheffield.

We are thankful for Alex Dunn, Amelia Conklin, Cara Davis and Alicia Brazie who staffed our Pizza Oven! And we are grateful to Berkshire Mountain Bakery for their generous support of our 'Pizza by the Slice' at the Market!  What a wonderful gathering of community and caring neighbors.

Special Notice to all Joyful Youth and Adults

Perhaps you’ve been sitting in the congregation, or on Zoom, listening to the choir, thinking, “That was beautiful, I wish I were singing with them.” Or maybe you were thinking, “If I were in the choir, I would suggest we sing something else.” Well, now is your chance. The choir is taking a break for the summer, and if you’ve been thinking of joining, for whatever reason, you have 2 months to pray on it.

As you may have noticed, our choir is awfully small for such a huge, God-loving, worshipful church. James 5:13 tells us, no, demands, that if we are happy, cheerful or feeling good in any way, we are to “sing songs of praise.” What better way to fulfill scripture than to sing with a group of your similarly joyful church friends.

We welcome all ages, from Middle School through forever. We practice at 9:00 a.m. Sundays before church. Please let Chelsea (chelsea.m.beatty@gmail.com) know if you’re interested.

Thought for the Day

Here is Creation's sermon of the day: 



Be like the lily. Let your joy rise up and be seen from wherever you find yourself!

Steeple Lighting

The Steeple is lighted for the month of July by Jim and Margie Larkin and family, in gratitude for the kindness and generosity of all those involved in Called to Care and Meal Train.

Future Steeple Lighting Sponsorships are available beginning in August. Later months are also available. 

To claim a month, please email the church office with your request. It is a lovely way to honor a friend, an occasion, a memory or loved one.
