This month's narthex display offers a celebration of Old North Church's children and youth programs.  With photos, art, and books, you'll be able to peek into our church school classrooms and see what programs the church offers for children and families.

​

Retire Your Lawn: Plant Hope 30-40% of all land is privately owned.  What if the faith groups, businesses, local governments, schools/universities, and individuals with purview to this earth took responsibility for our planets’ health? Judith Black, a founding member of Sustainable Marblehead, will be giving us a presentation on tips for transitioning all or part of a lawn. She will be with us in the Parish Hall after Coffee Hour this Sunday.

 

Middle Schoolers are welcome to join Rev. Christine at 8 Stacey Street this Sunday to learn about ONC's Prayer Shawl Ministry.  Middle Schoolers who know how to knit are welcome to learn how to make prayer shawls and take supplies with them.  Those who would like to learn will receive instruction!

​

​​​​​​Our Lenten book group with other area churches will read For Such a Time as This: An Emergency Devotional by Hanna Reichel.

About the book:

"In an era of political polarization, eroding democratic norms, and rising authoritarianism, many Christians find themselves disoriented, wondering how their faith should inform myriad daily decisions. Drawing upon both scholarship and pastoral wisdom, theologian Hanna Reichel offers a timely resource for believers seeking spiritual grounding amid societal upheaval."

We will meet Wednesdays at 7pm starting Feb 25, rotating between churches. 

Feb 25— St Andrew's Church

March 4— Clifton Lutheran

March 11— TBD

March 18—Old North

March 25— St Michael's Church
