Central Visitation Team is Alive and Well!

To answer the question about our team is: Yes! We are still very much active!! We quietly do our visits, calls, cards, tapes of ser-vices, and connections. We are a small ministry that has worked to keep members in touch with Central Church. We will be resuming our meetings and welcome any additions to our group.

If anyone would like a visit please let us know, you can contact Sue Bajko at 978-485-4341

Women’s Club Gets Ready for a New Year


As we near the end of summer, it should be good to put these hot, humid days behind us and think about the coming months. Labor Day will soon be here.
The Village Pancake House in Rowley was the setting for the annual ―Lunch Out‖ with about sixteen women attending. It is always a good opportunity to share in fellowship and chat with each other as take a break for the summer. The group agreed to continue on for another year, helping where we can and continuing to provide programs in the church,
We will begin with the annual “Harvest Tea” on Wednesday, October 6, from 2-4 p.m. Please mark your calendar as we look forward to beginning another season. 
Wednesday, October 20 at 7:00 p.m. travel with us to New Zealand. Be on the lookout for this special presentation by Amantha and Steven Moore as they relate their recent experiences.  
 

Wednesday, November 3, is the date chosen for the Fall Meeting of the Essex Women’s Association. Central Congregational Church will host this event as we welcome about 60 women from area churches to gather in worship and fellowship. Mrs. Miriam Boylen was elected president for the Essex Women’s Association this year. Look for details as the date approaches. Registration is usually at 9:30 a.m., followed by a worship program and lunch. We will be looking for help to manage this event.

In December, Carol and Pete Daigle will once again be providing their annual Christmas Dinner, along with help from their family and friends. Michael Hamill usually provides music for our enjoyment and we will provide more details as to time and date
The Women’s Club is always open to ALL the church women (and often men are invited to come and join us for a particular program) are welcome to join us in fellowship. Please join us whenever you can.
Yours in grateful fellowship,

Vivian Gove for the Steering Committee
