Parking is available in the Seminary Library lot (25 Library Place). Use the crosswalk in front of the Library to safely cross Mercer Street. Limited additional parking is available in the Staff Parking Lot off of College Road.
If you need to drop someone off at the Chapel, the most direct route is to enter the campus from Alexander Street. If you enter from Mercer Street, please note that the road around the Quad is one-way only — and please be mindful of pedestrians!

We have become aware that some of you may have received emails or texts that appear to be from Dave Davis or other church staff requesting your help. Please be very cautious. Church staff will not contact you asking you to buy gift cards, etc.
Even if you think an email or text is really from a church staff member, please make independent contact to verify before you make a financial transaction. You can send an email through the encrypted emails on our website or you can call the church and leave a message. We check the messages regularly.
We appreciate that folks want to help and just want to make sure that none of us are taken advantage of. Use a healthy dose of skepticism!

June 16, 7:00-8:30 PM, Assembly Room
Join Ward Hayes Wilson, author of It Is Possible: A Future Without Nuclear Weapons, for a presentation and conversation. A conference at Nassau Presbyterian Church in 1980 shaped Ward's interest in nuclear disarmament, and his work is engaging him in new ways with the denomination today. Ward is currently partnering with Presbyteries on an overture for consideration at the 227th General Assembly. Light supper provided. Hosted by the Adult Education Committee.

Thank You from
Westminster Presbyterian Church
| | Heartfelt thanks from Pastor Karen Herndandez Granzen and Dave Bush to the Nassau Church community. This year marked the 27th time Nassau members have generously funded the annual Trenton Thunder outing for children and families from Westminster Presbyterian Church. The group had a fantastic time—and celebrated a 6–5 walkoff win! Thanks to your continued support, funds remain to plan a summer trip to Island Beach State Park. Many of the children experienced the ocean for the first time last year, and they are excited to return! | | Loaves & Fishes - Thank You! | | Generosity is inherently adaptable, and that was on display at Loaves and Fishes' May edition this year. A late change rippled through our plan and led to some big last-minute asks of the Nassau congregation. And as always, you rose to the occasion. We delivered more than 500 meals and 250 bags of personal care items to the less fortunate in Trenton. Special thanks to the bold bunch who baked, bagged, boxed, and broiled—who pulled poultry, prepped plates, packed parcels, and delivered with delight! | | |
Our Appalachia Service Project crews are asking for old bed sheets to help protect the inside of rental vans as they transport construction materials and dusty volunteers around worksites in July. Double or Queen sizes preferred, but all donations graciously accepted by Sunday, June 29.

With college students heading home for the summer, Arm In Arm is facing a shortage of volunteers at their mobile food pantries. If you have a morning (9:30 am–12:30 pm) to lend a hand, you can make a real difference.
Volunteers of all ages are welcome; those ages 8–16 must be accompanied by an adult. Tasks include greeting and signing in clients, registering participants, replenishing bags of produce and protein items, breaking down boxes, and helping with cleanup. No experience is necessary! Volunteers will be warmly welcomed and supervised.
