As you know, the Foodbank is in great demand these days. You can help by making a monetary donation by clicking here.  This will allow the staff to purchase  much needed food to deal with the increase in demand at their door. Thank you!

We checked in with the Food Bank and they are in particular need of mini-boxes of cereal, as well as instant and ground coffee.  If you are willing to donate, please place in the link and Jackie Taylor with pick up and deliver (thanks Jackie!).

Despite the pandemic, we will once again need volunteers to distribute food in Somerville every Saturday in September!  If you are willing to participate, please email Lea O’Shea (leaoshea4@gmail.com) and let me know which Saturday(s) you are available.  If you’re not comfortable in person – please donate (I am afraid to say it….) TOILET PAPER.  It is always a big need and supplies are always low.  I think the supply is high in stores, so I think this is a need we can meet.  You can drop off your donations in the link or, if more convenient, just drop it off to the office.  

Thanks in advance for your donations!

I hope everyone is doing well and looking forward to doing some nice things this summer. Thank you to all the ushers who have served earlier this year. We are restarting with our summer schedule in July. I have been covering, but could use some help for the next two months with 10:00 services (8:00 services are still suspended for now). We will need just one usher for the 10:00 service through the summer. I could also use some new volunteers for the fall. If you are interested, please reach out to me, even if you can only usher occasionally. 

Thank you,

Jim Martucci
