Paul and Herb are going back to Dorchester today at noon and would like to invite anyone who can to join them.
Here's a note from Herb:
Last week we installed the new lights in the greeting area upstairs. It looks beautiful with the new paint and lighting. In the bathroom we moved, refitted and reinstalled the toilet, finished the wainscoting, and installed new TP holders. What has been done looks great but we still need to finish it off a little better.
This week we plan to install new ceiling lights, heat vents, mirrors and paper towel holders to finish the bathroom renovations. We'd also like to paint the two restrooms and the back door and there are also a few other minor fix-ups and paint-ups that could be done if we had a few more hands.
There is always more to do, but I think, barring being convinced otherwise, we will have to return the keys and declare victory with what we can get done tomorrow. Still, I would love to have the bathrooms looking just as nice as the foyer and the kids classrooms already do. Folks will need to call me ASAP to make sure we have the materials on hand for everyone who is coming to help.

2008 Co-Ed Softball is here!
2008 Co-Ed Softball is here!The church league softball seasons begins next week and we have our first game scheduled next Thursday, May 1st at 6PM. We do not have a complete schedule yet because some of the teams have not provided some of the necessary paperwork which has been holding up the works. Ours is in! Still, we need all North Street players to send a note to me with your preferred e-mail and cell phone numbers ASAP so we can complete our roster. Also, I'm sure we'll be trying to get together a practice some time in the next few days. Keep your ears open.

The Remembrance
For those of you who were able to worship together on Sunday night as part of The Remembrance, here is a link to the video of the song Ain't No Reason by Brett Dennen that we tried to watch, but didn't show up very well on our poor LCD projector. Sorry!
