WHAT'S  HAPPENING!

CHURCH YARD CLEAN-UP – The MEN’S CLUB will be having a Church Yard Clean-up this Thursday, June 1st at 6:00 pm. All are welcome to help spruce up the church grounds. Please bring your rake.

MEN'S CLUB YEAR END LUNCHEON – The Men's Club year end luncheon will be held at Wetmore's Pub on Wednesday, June 7th at 12:30.  This event is open to all men in the congregation.  If interested, please advise Dave or Keith so they can confirm your seat at the table.

GRADUATES – If you are graduating or know of someone within our church family who is graduating this year from high school, college or university, please give the office a call (506-459-3313) or let Rev. Kelly know.  Also, there is a sign up sheet on the bulletin board in the main foyer.  Graduates will be honoured on Sunday, June 18th.     ​

SPRING FUNDRAISER -  In an effort to achieve our 2023 budget of $135,000, the Stewards Committee has planned a Spring Fundraiser (donations only).  Please consider donating to this worthwhile cause.  Every dollar donated will be used to support church operations and maintenance and will be added to your 2023 income tax receipt.  To make a donation, please indicate on your offering envelope (or plain envelope) that it is for the Spring Fundraiser.  You can also mail your donation to the church:  New Maryland United Church, 875 Route 101 Hwy, Nasonworth, NB. E3C 2C1. Attn:  Sue Morrison, or arrangements can be made to pick up your donation.  Thank you for your continued support!

DAILY BREADS – Copies of “Our Daily Bread” for June, July and August are now available in the main entrance.  These copies are provided free of charge.  However, a container is available for those wishing to make a donation to Radio Bible Class.

GREENER VILLAGE COMMUNITY FOOD CENTRE – For the month of May we will focus on pasta sauce. However, as always, everything is deeply appreciated.

GREETER SIGN UP SHEET – Just a reminder that there is a “Greeter Schedule” posted at the back door. If you would like to volunteer to be a greeter some Sunday morning that would be convenient for you, kindly fill in your name by that particular Sunday. Thanks! 

2023 CHURCH ENVELOPES – The 2023 Church envelopes are on the table in the upper foyer for you to pick up. Only those who use their envelopes regularly have been issued new ones this year. In an effort to reduce our costs, those using PAR will not receive 2023 envelopes.  Please Note: 2022 Tax Receipts are now available for pick up in the main foyer.

CHURCH OFFERING – Anyone wanting a church envelope number (an annual tax receipt is issued for all contributions) or anyone interested in signing up for PAR (pre approved remittance - where monthly contributions can be made to the church through your bank), please contact Sue Morrison 458-8150 smorriso@unb.ca.

​MAIL-IN OFFERING – For those who wish to mail in their offering, please mail directly to the church:
   New Maryland United Church
   875 Route 101 Hwy
   Nasonworth, NB E3C 2C1
   Attn: Chair of Stewards Committee 

DONATING TO SPECIAL PROJECTS? – If you are assigning some of your weekly offering to “Special Projects” on your church offering envelope, please indicate exactly what fund you want to donate to: Outreach? Food Bank? Cemetery? Memorial? or Sunday School. Your financial support is always appreciated. If you have any questions, please contact Sue Morrison, Chair of Stewards (458-8150). 

PAR – Interested in using PAR for your offering? PAR allows you to have automatic bank withdrawals for your offering. If you are interested, there are pamphlets on the table in the foyer. If you have any questions, please contact Sue Morrison (Chair of Stewards) 458-8150. 

NMUC LIBRARY – Just a reminder that we have plenty of interesting books in our church library for anyone to borrow. There have been a couple of requests for “large print” novels for our library. If you have any at home or know someone who would like to donate some, we’d love to have them. 

JIGSAW PUZZLE LIBRARY – Just a reminder that we have a lovely selection of jigsaw puzzles in the choir room. They are available to anyone who would like to borrow them.  It is a great way to pass the time in the cold winter months.  Donations of puzzles are greatly appreciated.
                                                                         
BULLETIN DEDICATION – Anyone wishing to sponsor a Sunday bulletin ($20), please contact the church office (459-3313).  We encourage everyone to consider being a sponsor as it off sets the cost of our weekly bulletins.
