OUR THANKSGIVING INITIATIVE IS HERE!
Our annual Thanksgiving Initiative provides "all the makings of the meal" for an abundant table. Families can enjoy a turkey roasting, an apple pie baking, and the medley of aromas that signal holiday is happening here!
|
|
An enthusiastic army of volunteers help to organize, pack and distribute holiday meals grocery bags for over 200 Food Pantry households.
In 2018, a record number of Nutley residents, civic organizations, church groups and businesses, generously donated all the items necessary to create a memorable and nourishing holiday meal. We look forward to another successful effort.
In order to be as efficient as possible and ensure that there is a supply of each item for our “holiday grocery bag menu” we again are using an online sign-up roster for donations. Small turkeys and gift cards are especially appreciated.
NFSB is proud to bring our community together, connecting those who are in a position to give with those who are in a position to receive. Wishing everyone a warm and wonderful Thanksgiving.
Please, donate food online to NFSB’s Thanksgiving Initiative!

WHAT PHOBIAS CAN TEACH US ABOUT OURSELVES
The Things We Get Spooked About...
|
|
Biologically, fear is our defense against threat, but psychologically, it creates a very unpleasant state of mind,
Still, there are many times when we seek out fear intentionally. We like to scare ourselves a little, especially from a safe distance.
Case in point: Halloween. But there is a darker side to fear, and when it becomes overwhelming, paralyzing, and unyielding to any kind of common sense, there is an even darker side: Phobias.
