Food Pantry Donation Suggestions

 

We are often asked what paper products would be good to donate to the food pantry. Here are a few suggestions:

Toilet paper, paper towels, wet wipes, feminine hygiene products in all sizes.  Also, will you please consider donating ziplock type bags with zippers and new thermal socks in all sizes. If you drop your donations off in the Missions Trunk that is in the lower entrance to Northwood Congregational Church we will get the paper and plastic products to the food pantry and the socks to a nearby homeless shelter.

 

Thank you for anything you can do to help.

Upward - Outreach Opportunity

 

Hey, folks - here's an opportunity to help the homeless and rid yourself of tents, clean sleeping bags, blankets, bicycles in working condition for adults, and bug spray. The Northwood Congregational Church wishes to help the Laconia-area group called Upward - Outreach to fill this known need. They set up in the downtown area, where a church offers them space, and they spend time handing out items, showing a servant heart and being with the people judgement free.   If you have any donations to share, please private-message Shelley Hope Frost to arrange a drop-off.

Honey Bees Outdoor Concert, Saturday June 5 at Northwood Congregational Church

2:00 - 3:30 PM

 

Hear the sweet buzz of the Honey Bees Trio! 1930’s era Jazz, Folk-Rock and oddball Americana, the Bees mix it all up with flair and fun. Standards and old favorites are equally delivered with the original music of chanteuse Mary Fagan, who also keeps time and tone on her acoustic guitar. Guitarist Chris O’Neill colors the nectar with sassy chording on a hollow-body jazzbox and nimble runs on the Fender Telecaster. Holding it down low on the “big” bass, Jock Irvine keeps it cool and swinging while enhancing the mix with casual back up vocals. They will perform a special selection of songs Fit for guests and families at the Church.

Suggested donation $15.00 per adult
If you prefer Venmo, please pay Northwood Congregational @NCCGiving with a note "Honey Bees"

Bring a lawn chair or enjoy from your car!
