4. Choral Art Society
5. Other Reminders

1. This Sunday - This week's focus in our Words to Build a Life on series looks at Matthew 5:38-42 concerning the things of retaliation and hospitality. What does it mean to "turn the other cheek?"  What should our response be when we are unjustly minimalized, taken advantage of, and hurt financially or even physically?

Hope to see you Sunday!

2. "Nook" Did you hear?  We are transforming our gathering room and creating a Nook (working title) in the corner by the altar!  This space is being designed to be a comfortable area to sit back, chat, read, drink some coffee, and enjoy art created by those in our own church community.  So...  We need artists and writers!  We will be decorating the Nook space with art created by all of us.  We are asking for photography, drawings, paintings, etc. etc. etc.  We also want poetry or other writings so share.  If you want to contribute or have other artistic ideas, please contact Sarah. And, we need a better name for the space!  Send your ideas to Sarah or Ed.

3.  Coffeehouse Concert at Duxbury Church of the Nazarene (136 Summer St., Duxbury) on Saturday September 24th at 7pm.  Free Concert!  Sarah Troxler will be joined by Luke Schutz and Matt Travaline for an evening of popular, jazz, and worship music.  Refreshments will follow the concert.

4.  Choral Art Society Singers, of all backgrounds: the Choral Art Society of the South Shore is looking for singers for its 2011-12 season.  They will be performing Better is Peace by Karl Jenkins, Bach's Kyrie, Mass in Time of War by Haydn, and Vaughn Williams' Dona Nobis Pacem.  The choir rehearses Monday nights in Scituate and there is no audition.  Please contact Sarah if you want more information or visit www.choralartsociety.org
