FOOD PANTRY MONTH

With the holidays coming up, Hands of Mercy in Kingston could use holiday food items such as: cranberry sause, cake mixes, frosting, brownie mixes, etc. We are askin that donations of these items be brought to the Narthex each Sunday through October 30th. As always, any other items are always appreciated.

FALL CLEANUP AND REPAIRS

There are a number of projects that the Trustees are working on this Fall.  This past week the church building was power washed. We do this every other year (but with COVID, it had been 3 years). We also have some roof and soffit repairs lined up for the parsonage. The total cost for these projects is a little over $3,000. If you would like to give a special gift above your usual gifts to the church for these projects, please mark it Trustees. Let's make it all look inviting.
