BURNING THE RAIN

This week’s project at the Vicarage is burning brush.

Unfortunately the weather has been so rainy all week, getting a fire going has been very difficult and the acrid smoke from last year’s weeds makes my clothes smell soooo bad.

Still it is the beginning of a whole host of other projects. So I will soldier on through the smoke!

OUR NEIGHBOR’S KITCHEN, 30 YEARS

Last night, I had the opportunity to attend the thirtieth anniversary of OUR NEIGHBORS KITCHEN, at the Winchendon Church of the Unity. The Kitchen has been running continuously for thirty years. The Church of the Unity has hosted all those years and was joined about a decade ago by The Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic Church in Winchendon, who now hosts every 1st and 3rd Thursday.

The Kitchen is a place people can go if they need food or fellowship.

It was a wonderful night. It was a night of wonderful food and fellowship. Thank you to Jill Sackett for the personal invite to our Church staff!
