COMMUNITY ANNOUNCEMENTS
SYNC: Loving and supporting teenagers can be an exhilarating, painful, exciting, frightful, rewarding and frustrating experience. How we stay connected with our teens, and who our teens are connected with, can be key components in supporting young people in exploring their worlds constructively. Join us on January 6, 2010 at 6:30 p.m. at Coe Brown Northwood Academy to spend an evening with Stephen Andrew, LCSW, LADC, CCS. Stephen brings extensive experience working with children and adults and will share in helping us more effectively support the healthy development of all teens. Learn more at www.hetimaine.org. This event is FREE and open to the public. Refreshments served. Event sponsored by SYNC (Supporting Youth In Communities) Coalition. For more information on SYNC Coalition, visit at http://synccoalition.org.

The Epiphany Arts Festival will once again transform the sanctuary into a visual delight during January and February under the talented hands of our own Neil English. It is time to be thinking of your special creation(s) to share. PLEASE NOTE: All entries MUST be received by 7 pm on January 5th—no later. The festival is about showcasing the talent that resides within our greater church family and their relatives; all art forms are encouraged. Photographs and wall artwork must be framed to include two screw eyes with frame wire attached. Fabric wall hangings should include some means for hanging; quilts must have hanging “sleeves”; wooden rods will be provided. Forms must be filled out in duplicate to expedite identification. Please make note that the show will be dismantled after church on February 14th . Arrangements should be made for removal of your piece at that time. For further information, call Neil at 736-9681.
