is set for Saturday, December 4th at 6 PM at the Parish House!

Saturday, December 11: Breakfast With Santa
"Breakfast With Santa"
Saturday, December 11th at 10 AM in the Parish House. We need help with our Advent Craft Table...please let Annette know that you can help her!

Thanks to the Thanksgiving volunteers!
Michelle Paredies, coordinator of the Thanksgiving Dinner, gave a special thanks to all the volunteers at service today. She said that 18 people, including several Boy Scouts, participated and that all the volunteers enjoyed contributing or serving at the dinner on Wednesday, November 24 at Project Hospitality's two locations on Staten Island.

Advent Giving Tree
Michelle also needs your help in providing gifts to 11 homeless men living in a shelter on Staten Island. Their pictures and their clothing sizes are posted at the Parish House during service. We ask that you sponsor one of these men for Christmas. Or a couple of people can sign up as a team to sponsor their gifts. Suggested gifts: one significant gift - a sweater (cardigan or pull over), a pair of pants or a pair of shoes ($10 - $15).  And then a couple of smaller gifts (pick two of the following suggestions): a package of socks, T-shirts, gloves, wallet, toiletry set, sweat shirt ($10 in smaller gifts). Total spent for each individual: $20 - $25.  We ask that you bring the gifts along with a card to the individual on Sunday, December 19th! For more information please call (718) 448-1544, fax (718) 720-5476 or e-mail info@projecthospitality.org.
This will be their only Christmas gifts!

Advent drive for the homeless
Please see Deacon Deborah Siciargo during service on how you can help the homeless this Advent!

Study series for new believers
This week we begin an education series for new believers! Join us after church at 12:30 PM for a half hour study time.

Commissioning event postponed
The commissioning event on October 17 celebrating the Rev. Terry Troia's 10th anniversary as minister of this church has been postponed until May 2005.

Extra envelopes for the Restoration Fund
Extra envelopes will be provided for the New Utrecht Reformed Church Restoration Fund at each Sunday service. Please contribute generously.
