5 Day Club 
     A dozen children participated our second 5 Day Club. The free program was provided by Christian Evangelism Fellowship (CEF) and Boscawen Congregational Church at the church park on July 20-24, 2026. 
     The purpose of the club was to tell children about Jesus, and siblings Jonah and Rachel from CEF did an excellent job of that while keeping an organized, but exciting club.  

     Each day started with verses from the day before and each day had a challenge.  One day was Crazy Hat Day, one day it was Water day.  One day was Craziest Outfit.  There were two teams and they competed for points based on what was being taught.
     Each day they had games and a continuing gospel story and verses to remember for prizes and quiet seat prizes. 
A hula hoop game was done in a circle and everyone held hands and had to move the hula hoop around the circle. On water day, they played with 3 sponges which could be filled with water and played a game almost like duck, duck goose, except you squeezed the sponge on top of the head you chose.  There were relay races of tag and many other active games.  
     And of course we had snack time.  Folks in the congregation were very generous in donating water, watermelon, Goldfish and pretzels.  On the final day, everyone came to the church to end the week with sandwiches and ice cream. Thanks to all in the congregation who helped in any way!

The Children, Young and Old, Loved the Halloween 'Trunk or Treat'

This year, over 200 trick or treaters visited the Church to enjoy our 4th Annual 'Trunk or Treat' event!  Trick or treating in Boscawen is traditionally held the night before Halloween or 'gate night', and this year, due to the weather, the Church's 'Trunk or Treat' event was moved into the sanctuary.  Many parents were relieved as the night outside as rainy and cold!

Inside the sanctuary, children, young and old enjoyed the costumes, baked goods, hot cider, candy and general air of festivity. With Boscawen being such a rural community, this annual event brings everyone together and allows the children the freedom to roam the sanctuary, trick or treating at the different stations and families to visit with one another. It was a great night, and we can't wait to see everyone again next year!

CROP Hunger Walks raise money to support the global mission of Church World Service to respond to hunger, poverty, displacement, and disaster. After the walk, CWS returns 25% of the funds raised to the Greater Concord Interfaith Council to support local hunger fighting efforts.  Hilda's Food Pantry at BCC is one of the programs that will receive money from this year's walk

I HAVE DECIDED TO FOLLOW JESUS...
EIGHT PEOPLE BAPTIZED AT THE BLACKWATER RIVER

On August 3, 2024, Pastor Dave baptized eight people in the Blackwater River, making their public commitment to become loyal followers of Jesus Christ. Surrounded by family and friends, Chris Rodgers, Katalyn Rodgers, Jaxson Rodgers, Jackie Sheil, Joelle Sheil, Ryan Keeler, Darlene Keeler and Joey Keeler were baptized.  A special thank you to Marilyn and Paul Nylen for their hospitality! 

​Jesus said, "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest." (Matt. 11:28). Is Jesus calling you to follow him?

ANNUAL TRUNK OR TREAT HALLOWEEN EVENT ALWAYS A HUGE SUCCESS! - OCTOBER 30
These pictures are from our 2022 event.  Rain caused us to move the event inside  in 2023 - and we forgot to take pictures! 

Our annual 'Trunk or Treat' Halloween event is a fantastic opportunity to connect with young Boscawen families.  Over 300 people attend this annual event held in the parking lot of the church to allow their children to have Halloween fun in a safe setting.  Over a dozen church members decorate the trunks of their cars and hand out Halloween candy for this event. Boscawen always celebrates Halloween on 'Gate Night' which is October 30th each year and starts at 5:30pm.

"Hilda's" Food Pantry is Re-Dedicated

On Sunday, June 12, we gathered to pray and re-dedicate the BCC Food Pantry (Hilda's Food Pantry) after much-needed attention, repairs and renovations were done. It's simply sparkling and reconfigured for improved use of space and accessibility! May God increase His presence here and bless this ministry done in His name so that it can be the hands and feet of Jesus to the hungry people of Boscawen.

CHURCH RECORDS NOW ONLINE AT THE NEW ENGLAND HISTORICAL GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY

Picture
The church loaned our records to the New England Historic Genealogy Society last year.  They filmed and digitally copied all the records.   One of the digital copies was placed at the Boscawen Historical Society with a second set at church.
​
The NE Historical Geneological Society indexed the records and now will be making them available to their members for genealogical research!  Thank you Ron Reed for making this happen!
