All levels of singers are invited to a Community Circle Sing on the second Saturdays of each month from 10:30am to noon starting on November 8th.
Circle singing is a powerful musical form that offers a unique way to connect, build community and experience the healing that joining our voices can bring. We are lucky enough to have a number of experienced circle leaders in our area who will be rotating through as our fearless guides each month.
We will be meeting in the beautiful and resonant sanctuary of the First Presbyterian in downtown TBurg. Please bring a water bottle and wear comfy clothes. Donations are welcome.
Join us and bring a friend!
SAVE the DATE - WinterFest - Saturday, December 6th
We will open our Fellowship Hall and participate in Trumansburg's Annual Winter Fest, a day of community events. This is a Fundraiser for the General Budget of the Church. We are making a plan and welcome your ideas for new activities to attract people to walk up the hill. (Time to be determined). The Church's "VARIETY GIFT TABLE" has been a significant attraction of shoppers. SO, please start bringing your REgift items to the Kitchen Shelves. Anything in excellent condition will be accepted, not clothing or "rummage sale" items. If you have a question about an item, please contact Pam Postle. Also, we'll be selling Loaded Baked Potatoes, desserts & beverages, a real winner last year. Jim Mason will sell his beautiful Environmental Photo Prints on Canvas and Tiles. We have some "things in the works", so look for updates in coming weeks. If you know a vendor that would like to participate, contact Pam at Lppostle@aol.com.
Friendship Lunch Resumes - last Wednesday of each month - Falls Restaurant
All women are invited to attend our monthly lunch at the Falls Restaurant, held on the LAST Wednesday of each month. This is a social opportunity to visit with others and bring a friend to get acquainted. Enjoy the visiting and support a local business, too.
Food Pantry News
It was another successful pantry on Monday, October 6. We were able to serve 102 families made up of 209 individuals (29 children, 93 adults, and 87 seniors). Five new families registered, 4 from T-burg and 1 from Newfield. Eighty customers came to the pantry in the first hour. The average number of families using the pantry in September was 102 and increases in attendance were gradual toward the end of the summer break from school. The next food pantry is on October 20.
Bottle and Can Recycling
You can help local youth in need and do your spring cleaning at the same time. When you return your bottles and cans for refunds you can help the Caring and Mission Ministry Team support the Local Youth Initiative. This supports the nurses’ emergency funds for local student in need at the Trumansburg and South Seneca Schools. Return your bottles and cans to:
1. The T-burg Shur-Save recycling and take the paper receipts to the service desk and have them put it in the Presbyterian local you initiative pouch… or
2. The Trumansburg Redemption Center (it has just reopened) on Main Street next to the Post Office. Tell them to put the money in the Presbyterian “jar” and they will sort the bottles and cans for you.
Thank you for your past and continuing support!
Little Free Library
If you are ready to part with a book---please do put it in the little library or in the Library donation bin in the kitchen. Our Little Library will always need donations! And—they bring joy. It is the nature of that bookshelf!
Thank you for generous donations all summer of books for all ages and to you who stop & tidy! Many who pass by may add a book or take a moment to arrange the books for easy browsing. Community of readers.
