MISSION & SERVICE - Our Spare-Change-Jar fundraiser is ongoing.  Spare-Change-Jars were handed out in the fall of 2019 and will be collected in the fall of 2020.  If you didn’t receive yours and would like one, you can pick one up in the main foyer.  This is a fundraising project of our NMUC Sunday School.  Proceeds will go to the United Church Mission & Service fund.                                                                                                   

"DAILY BREAD" - Copies of “OUR DAILY BREAD” (Dec/Jan/Feb) are available at both entrances of the Church. These copies are provided free of charge. However, a container for those wishing to make a donation to Radio Bible Class is available.

OUTREACH - On the third Monday of the month, volunteers from our church will go to Christ Church Cathedral to offer sandwiches and fellowship to assist in their weekly outreach efforts.
   On the fourth Saturday of every month, NMUC sends three people to the Fredericton Community Kitchen.  From 8:30 am to approximately 1:00 pm, we prepare and serve lunch for the clients. 

OUTREACH SIGN UP SCHEDULES - Sign up schedules are posted for both the Community Kitchen Volunteers and Christ Church Sandwiches.  They are found on the Outreach Committee bulletin board in the main foyer by Lorna’s office.   The Outreach Committee is very appreciative of all the support we receive from the congregation either through donations or helpful volunteering.
​
​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.  A great way to pass the time in the cold winter months. Donations of puzzles are always greatly appreciated.

GREETER SIGN UP SHEET - There is a “Greeter Schedule” posted at the back door.  If you or your family would like to volunteer to be greeters some Sunday morning that would be convenient for you, kindly fill in your name by that particular Sunday!  Thanks!

BULLETIN DEDICATION - Anyone wishing to sponsor a Sunday bulletin to celebrate a family event, special day, or memorial can do so by contacting the church secretary at 459-3313.  The cost is $20."
