"VIRTUAL" CROP WALK FOR HUNGER GREAT SUCCESS
|
This year's Crop Walk for Hunger, though virtual due to the pandemic was a great success! We are grateful to those in our community that donated to our Church's "virtual walkers" as we made an estimated $1,000. Overall the New Hampshire "Crop Walk for Hunger" made more than $10,000.
CROP Hunger Walks are community-wide events sponsored by Church World Service and organized by religious groups, businesses, schools and others to raise funds to end hunger in the U.S. and around the world. |
DONTATIONS NEEDED BY NOVEMBER 18 FOR THANKSGIVING BASKETS

Each year through the generosity of local businesses and members of our wider community, the Boscawen Congregational Church is able to prepare anywhere up to 120 Thanksgiving baskets that are distributed throughout Boscawen.

CHURCH RECORDS NOW ONLINE AT THE NE HISTORICAL GENEOLOGICAL SOCIETY
|
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! https://dbnews.americanancestors.org/.../boscawen-nh.../ |

CHURCH STRATEGIC PLANNING UNDERWAY
|
“A plan without action is a dream, action without a plan is a nightmare”
Expanding our presence, being a "beacon of light" in the community, spreading the good news, involving more youth, supporting the community park, and providing an opportunity for spiritual growth for everyone are all included in the Church's 3-year Strategic Plan that is under development. More than 30 people, over an eleven month period participated in small group meetings to ask themselves these questions.
The feedback from these meetings was boiled down to common themes which the 2021-2023 Boscawen Congregational Church Strategic Action Plan will encompass. If you are interested in learning more about how to be involved in the Church's strategic planning, email Boscawencongregational@gmail.com. |
