Gilead Luthern Church Sunday School
Sunday Church School has faced many challenges since September. Due to many factors including conflicting commitments and the Covid-19 resurgence, we have not had as many friends joining together on Sunday mornings.
We have decided to postpone all remaining classes this spring and will resume in September 2022. Hopefully, all of our regular friends and some new friends will be reunited to share bible adventures and songs and fun together. We will send further details over the summer. Jen and Tori ask that all students, watch the mail for some surprises. We will miss all of our children very much. See you in September. Gilead is located at the intersection of Route 7 East and Route 278. Our phone is 518-279-9270. gileadlutheran.org

Support for Parents of Children with Disabilities
BRUNSWICK – Do you have a child with various disabilities or other needs? You are cordially invited to participate in a support group from the comfort of your own home! This is an opportunity to share concerns, insights, and resources to help navigate through both rewarding and challenging times. The host is Connie Vooys, a former special education teacher and mother to a special needs child. The group meets via zoom on the first and third Thursday of the month at 7:00 PM, and is open to all parents and caregivers without regard to geographic or religious boundaries. If you are interested, please write to office@nullbrunswickchurch.org and Connie will send you an online link to the group and answer any questions you may have. Sometimes a bit of encouragement makes all the difference!
Calling All Knitters
BRUNSWICK – Are you someone who likes to knit, but you’ve already made everything you need for yourself and your family? We have a great opportunity where you can use your skill to help others! You are welcome to participate in our Prayer Shawl Knitting Group every first and third Thursday at 12:30 PM in the lobby at Brunswick Church. Shawls are made to share and bring comfort to those who are ill or suffering, and they have always been very much appreciated. For more details about joining the group, or if you know of someone who could use a prayer shawl, please call the church office at 518-279-3792. This is a ministry of Brunswick Church at 42 White Church Lane (just off Rt. 351). Our worship services are Sundays at 9:30 AM and all are welcome; however, church attendance is not required to join the knitting group or to request a prayer shawl.

Cancer Support Group
BRUNSWICK – There are very few of us who have not been affected by cancer, either as a patient, family member, or friend. If you are dealing with the stress of this disease for whatever reason, talking with others in similar circumstances can be very beneficial.

If you have any questions or would like the zoom link, please contact Ted at twright@nullbrunswickchurch.org.
