Nametags
As more and more of the congregation is returning to worship in person after not seeing one another in quite a while AND in anticipation of Anna’s arrival, we want to encourage everyone to get in the habit of wearing your nametags again! If you have misplaced yours, Marcy, our Office Administrator, is happy to make you another one (marcy@firstpresnb.org). There is a board in the Narthex where you can leave your nametag at the end of the service and it will be waiting for you the next Sunday.

Welcoming Tip of the Month
Many First Presbyterians love to sit at the end of the pew, while that middle section often has empty spots. Sometimes latecomers need a seat. When someone taps on your shoulder to get one of those empty seats in the middle, it’s an opportunity for you to offer a warm welcome. You can quickly stand, offer a smile, and make room for that individual. Or…you could even slide over a couple of seats to the middle!
First Presbyterian Church identifies itself as a welcoming community of faith and intends to be an inclusive place of spiritual growth for all people. The Welcoming Committee over the months will be offering you monthly tips to strengthen the hospitality of our congregation.

Centering Prayer Group
Don’t let this title frighten you off. Centering prayer has been around for a long time and is regaining more attention as a useful way of nurturing our new life in God’s Spirit. We will study The Universal Christ by Richard Rohr as our guide in re-discovering God’s Spirit present in all life. Contact Lloyd Griffith. Currently on summer hiatus until the fall.
Contemplative Worship
This contemplative, or reflective, approach to worship is offered each Wednesday from 5:00 pm to 5:30 pm. This quiet service is focused around silence, prayer and reflection on the Biblical text chosen for preaching the coming Sunday. The Lord’s Supper is observed on the 4th Wednesday of the month. Join when you can and bring a friend. Contact Lloyd Griffith. Currently on summer hiatus until the fall.
