N.E.W. Shelter Meal will be Monday, November 7. The signup sheet is
now in the narthex for participation and help. We will serve spaghetti, fruit,
vegetable, rolls & cupcakes. Containers and recipe are in the drawer

Help Martin School get ready for a new school year! There is a continuing
need for boy's and girl's elastic-waist pants (sweatpants, etc.), and
underwear, all in sizes 5-8. Please put your donations in the cupboard
marked for Martin School. Martin is looking for volunteers, especially in
the kindergarten rooms. If interested in volunteering call Mary Jo
Rabideau at 662-7551.

In the Hospital? If you want Pastor Jim to know you are going to be
and/or are hospitalized, please be sure to contact the church office,
468-0713. When admitted to the hospital, you will have to tell them
to contact Atonement. Even when you tell this to the hospital,
sometimes we are called and sometimes we are not. The only
way to be sure we know about your hospitalization is for you or a
family member to contact us directly. Without your assistance, it is
very possible your hospitalization will not be known by Pastor Jim.

The Preble Hive now has a washer and dryer and is able to offer
laundry services to families in need. The Hive is seeking donations
of laundry detergent and fabric softener sheets to support this new
outreach. Other items suggested for donation are: personal
hygiene items: body wash, soap, shampoo and conditioner –
regular size is preferred over the hotel/sample size paper products:
toilet paper and paper towels alarm clocks (simple wind-up ones)
Donations can be brought to church or dropped off at the Preble
office during school hours. The Hive is open to ALL members of the
Preble community who are in need. The families and/or individuals
do not need to have children who attend Preble. If you know of
someone in need, please tell them about this wonderful resource.
The Hive is open during school hours and by appointment.
