Mission at the Eastward (MATE) 2016
There will be a young and enthusiastic group of folks from the Presbytery of Boston who will participate in MATE’s North Parish Housing Ministry work camp this summer, in and around Farmington, ME. If you have home improvement skills – wonderful! If you don’t, but are energetic and willing to get your hands dirty to help those whose homes need improvement, even better! This year’s camp will run from Sunday, July 31st through Friday, August 5th. You can come for a day, or a few days, or the whole week. If you are interested in learning more, please contact Ellen (ellends1313@gmail.com).

Do You Have a Prayer Request?
We, as a congregation, have always felt that our time during the service for sharing celebrations and concerns is one of the most important pieces of our community. But often, those celebrations and concerns come in the midst of our busy lives. We may really need to have someone praying for us on a Wednesday night- and maybe by the time Sunday morning comes, that prayer request is no longer on our minds. Or maybe, for whatever reason, we don’t feel comfortable announcing our prayer request aloud during the service. The Deacons begin to think about this a while ago, and we have decided to begin a try a few things to help with these issues.

If you would like to have the Deacons and others in the congregation pray for you, you have two ways to ask for prayers: We now have an online prayer request list. You may email any prayer request, at any time, to prayers@clarendonhillchurch.org. This is a private list. If you’d like to help the Deacons pray for others, please send an email to Ellen (ellends1313@gmail.com).

Perhaps you don’t have email. Or you are visiting our congregation, but have an important prayer request you need to share. So, in the back of the sanctuary, we have set up a prayer request box, with prayer request cards that you can fill out and leave in the box. The Deacons will monitor the box, and share those prayer requests also.
We hope you find these helpful. If you have questions, concerns, or would like to give us feedback, feel free to email the deacons at deacons@clarendonhillchurch.org. Thank you!
