COMING UP SUNDAY- JUNE 7

This is the 2nd Sunday after Pentecost (Proper 5).  We are back to the Green Season also known as Ordinary Time in the church.  Read the column to the left to learn more about this.
Last Saturday we had a wonderful Pasta Dinner Fundraiser.  There were over 60 people in attendance and great food.  We raised money for our church and for the summer camp program at ECC in Pascoag.
