Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday & Friday - 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. ~

Not here Thursday.

THE MIDDLESEX COUNTY FAIR - will be held the week of August 4 - 10 and Aldersgate will be there with a bigger and better booth to attract people's attention to our church and to worshipping and serving with us. Our Fair Committee, chaired by Brian Grimes, is gearing up for a great week at the Fair. One of our major needs is for people to sign up to be at our booth during the week. There will be a signup sheet in the reception room so that many of us can volunteer at least one two-hour time slot during this important effort of our church.

SUNDAY SCHOOL SCHEDULE FOR SUMMER


During the summer we will have a "Children's Church" program for K through 4th grades, at both the 9:00 and 10:30 services through August 31

September 7 - Regular class schedule resumes

HANDBELLS BEGINNER CLASS OR REFRESHER CLASS - We are trying to set up a beginner class or refresher class for anyone who may be interested in playing the handbells. It is helpful to know a little bit about music, but not absolutely necessary. If you can count, and swing your arms you are just about ready to ring. If you just want to give it a try first, I and some of the choir members can show you the basics. A time will be set up later this summer for those who are interested. This is not just for adults - I know that some of our young people have had the opportunity to play bells in school. It would be nice to have both a youth and an adult choir. If you are interested, you can leave your name with the church secretary (732 254 7361) or with me. Thank you.
