Congregational Singing Practice Occasional choir singers and members of the congregation who would like to "go over" the music for a Sunday service should come up to the organ before 9:50 AM, with hymnal in hand, when Ed is on duty. However, he is usually on New Hampshire organ benches on the third Sunday of each month.

Sunday, August 25 at 1:00 PM 131 Thomson Drive Drivers for The Blind Needed The Vermont Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired (VABVI) has an immediate URGENT need for volunteer drivers in and around the Ludlow area to get people where they need to go. Clients of VABVI cannot drive which causes a serious problem for them, forcing them to rely on others. They need to put food on their tables, get to vital medical appointments and run important errands. The Volunteer Pool in the Ludlow area is very low and they greatly need help so clients can meet their daily living needs. The VABVI’s Volunteer Transportation Program provides free personalized transportation services. Come and be a part of something wonderful by joining our team of inspirational volunteers. Volunteer Drivers work on an “as needed” basis and are free to accept or decline any trip to suit their own schedules. Volunteer as much or as little as you have time for. Drivers receive mileage reimbursements for the use of their cars. If you can help or would like more information, call toll free at 1-877-350-8840. VABVI is a non-profit organization providing a wide array of services to Vermonters with vision loss. Comments are closed.
