1. This Sunday - We're looking forward to being together again on Sunday!  Sarah passes along this video ("Let it Rise").  We used to sing this a few years ago, but it'll surface again on Sunday. Our main scripture focus comes from this week's epistle passage - I Corinthians 1:10-18 (read all of our passages here).  We'll be considering the potential for unity as Christ's Body in the local church, that we can do so much more together than we can individually.

2. Coffeehouse - The next Coffeehouse at Duxbury St. Paul's Church of the Nazarene is tomorrow, Saturday, January 22 at 7pm.  All are welcome to join in the night of music, art, and coffee.  Please talk to Sarah if you are interested in performing.  St. Paul's Church is located at 136 Summer St. in Duxbury.


3. Sound System - We are in need of a few people willing to learn and run the sound system during our gatherings.  Some previous musical experience is helpful, but not essential.  Please speak to Sarah if you're willing to help.

4. North Street Community Discernment of God's Mission - Times for discussion groups are now ready and waiting for people to sign up.  For all the info on the discernment journey, click here.  If you have not yet worked on a survey, please contact Pastor Jeremy.  If you have completed the survey or are already working on it, thanks!  The surveys should be completed by January 30th and our discussion groups begin the very next day.  See the link above to see the dates & times for the groups, and email Pastor Jeremy with your first and second choice for those dates.


5. North Street Community Retreat - Our third annual North Street Community Retreat at Windsor Hills Campground (February 18-21, President's Day weekend) is getting closer and closer.  Everyone is invited to come!   is just outside of Hillsboro, NH.  All payments can be submitted in the offering boxes (but mark it clearly!).  Total amount due is the Sunday prior to our leaving.  The shared costs figure out as follows:
