Do you have books gathering dust on your shelf? Ready to make room for new books?

Christ Church is holding a Book Sale on April 25 (Rutgers Day) from

9:00 am -3:00 pm.

To help us, please bring books in GOOD condition (no mold, no water damage, no missing pages or broken bindings), to Christ Church starting this Sunday, March 15. We will be collecting books through April 18.

We are also collecting bags for the shoppers to use.

We would greatly appreciate volunteers to help with the book sale on April 25. The sale will take place in the garden. If you have a large tent that we could use, please let us know.

Refreshments may be for sale in the Nicholas Room.

If you have any questions, please contact Sheila Cooper or Mark McMahon.

Join St. Alban’s online each Thursday evening from 7pm- 8pm for Prayer Meeting and Bible Study. St. Alban’s has encouraged the wider community to join us and many of the attendees come from different congregations locally as well as internationally.

We invite people to testify if they are prayerfully led and also encourage them to send their prayer requests in advance if they wish. Some attendees come prepared from time to time to not only testify, but to give a word of encouragement.

Please see the Zoom invitation below.
