THIS SUNDAY AT ST. NICK'S
May 10, 2015
Sixth Sunday of Easter
SATURDAY MAY 9TH IS SPRING CLEAN-UP Spring has sprung! It's time for spring clean-up. Anyone who is interested in helping out please join us this Saturday May 9th from 9am-12pm.
A BIG SHOUT OUT To Aiden Cuite and young artists from our community for organizing a very successful benefit concert this past Sunday for Scenic Hudson.
AND A BIG THANK YOU To Wally Bottger & Peggy Ellis for allowing our congregation to gather at their home to celebrate our parish and launch our capital campaign.
ST. NICK'S CAPITAL CAMPAIGN IS OFF AND RUNNING!! This campaign is our fundraising effort to address critical deferred maintenance and building improvements to meet the needs of the growing parish community. At the kick-off event, chairs Greg Freeman and Paul Bruening announced that the parish leadership group (Vestry and others organizing the capital campaign) have pledged over $170,000. This generousity and demonstration of commitment puts us in good shape to reach out to the entire St. Nick's community for support over the coming weeks so we can reach our goal.
SILENT AUCTION: Next meeting will be on May 27th. To anyone interested in being part of this fabulous committee, please join us, all are welcome! Contact Joe Haubrich at [email protected]
LOCAL FARM STAND IS OPENED - PLUS CSA SHARES AVAILABLE!
Farmers Tim and Sam asked us to pass along notice that Obercreek Farm, just up the street from the church, is gearing up for their new season. Many St. Nick's parishioners are members of our local farm, which includes a Community Supported Agriculture program (CSA - weekly shares of fresh local produce) and also a farmer's market, which starts this weekend (Sat and Sunday). Support local, sustainable agriculture!
