CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR SEARCH TEAM

MITTEN SUNDAY DECEMBER 10th
We will celebrate this treasured Amicable tradition during worship on Sunday, December 10th. The congregation is invited to bring new mittens, gloves, hats, or warm socks for men and women only this year, as all of the donated items will be brought to First Step Inn in Fall River, which focuses on adults in need. First Step Inn is a homeless shelter that provides residential and outpatient treatment for individuals struggling with substance abuse, addiction, and mental health issues.
Please donate your time and/or baked goods!
Deliver your baked goods to the church on December 16 at 8:00 a.m.

STANDING COMMITTEE CHRISTMAS MISSION
Our 2023 Christmas Mission is to provide a very merry Christmas to the residents of Thrive Behavioral Health's Tiverton House. There are currently nine residents living with severe and persistent mental illness ranging in age from 30-71 years old. The residential environment helps to regulate the clients with medication management, learning life skills, and working towards meeting their individual goals. Few clients have family involved with their treatment, so many times the residents come together to support and be a family to each other.
Each resident has created a wish list for us to reference. The list will be available on our website and updated often.
Gifts can be brought to the church through Thursday, December 14th for delivery to Thrive’s Tiverton House on December 15th!
