Reminder

We found the back door on the walk way was unlocked and the downstairs lights were left on.

It is understood that the last one to leave the building shuts off the lights and check the doors to make sure they are locked.

If anyone has any other ideas to make sure our building is secure please reach out to churchoffice@LaconiaUCC.org or 603-524-0668

Christmas Sing-a-long with Lorraine!

Join us after Book Club on Wednesday, Dec. 18^th for a fun and lively hour to sing Christmas Carols and celebrate the season together. 11:30a in the Church Hall. We’ll share some holiday snacks and then enjoy singing-a-long with Lorraine Barrows on the piano!

***FAITH FORMATION will happen this Sunday,

Dec. 8^th and we hope to see you there!!

The Nominating Committee is currently working to fill positions of all standing committees in the church.

The good news is there is a strong group of people who continue to serve, but there are still several opportunities for others to join.  

Right now there are openings in Diaconate, Educational Ministry, & Outreach Committee. And a golden opportunity for a Vice-Moderator. 

And if you are not always in the area or don't like going out to a meeting, not to worry: every group, anytime is happy to have you join via Zoom wherever you may be.

As quoted, "Being a member of this church is not a spectator sport." Jump in!

Christmas Fair Thank You

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

November 16th Christmas Fair was amazing. We had a busy day that included meeting new people, getting to know others better and of course selling handmade items, plants, jewelry, baked goods, gift baskets, gingerbread houses, frozen soups, cookies and of course, lunch. The atmosphere was alive with music, smiling folks and much Christmas cheer. We want to thank everyone that had ANYTHING to do with the fair. There are too many large and small jobs to thank each one individually. The atmosphere was so festive and we all had so much fun. We are all looking forward to next year already!
