The Outreach committee will be putting up the Hat and Mitten Tree again after Thanksgiving this year. Our tree needs a little sparkle. If you down-sizing or up-grading and have a string or two of lights to share, please bring them to church before Thanksgiving. Thank you from your Outreach elves.

PS -- Remember to bring in new hats and mittens/gloves to be donated to the Foxboro Discretionary Fund on December 19th.

The next book club will be November 8, 4pm - 6pm, at Katie Metcalf's house in Norton. We are going to read The Women by Kristen Hannah. Questions?: contact Louise D'Onofrio

Jenn Oberlander is looking for people who can use a leaf blower (we will provide one, if you do not own one) to clear off our parking lot and Memorial Garden Walkway. Acorns, pinecones and pine needles can make the walk to the church slippery and dangerous.

If we clean it once a week, it takes about 1-2 hours. Jenn is looking to create a schedule of volunteers for the season. Please contact Jenn Oberlander if you can help out. (A full Fall Clean-Up will be scheduled for a later date.)

The Spiritual Life Team at Trinity, Wrentham invites you to attend a listening and discussion presentation of Leonard Bernstein's Mass. We will meet in Trinity's parish hall on four successive Sunday afternoons at 2 pm. The presenter is Rick Duthe, Director of Music at Trinity.

The outline of the program is:

•  Sunday, October 20 Introduction:  The Roman Catholic Mass and the Episcopal Service of Holy Eucharist: Connections and Differences
• Sunday, October 27: Listening and Discussing: Part 1 of Bernstein's Mass
• Sunday, November 3: Listening and Discussing: Part 2 of Bernstein's Mass
• Sunday, November 10: Viewing and Discussion: A video performance of Bernstein's Mass

Mass was commissioned by Jackie Kennedy for the opening of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. on September 8, 1971. Using the text from the Liturgy of the Roman Mass, with additional texts by Stephen Schwartz and Leonard Bernstein, the questions and issues raised by the work are still relevant more than fifty years later.

Come and experience this powerful "Theater Piece for Singers, Players and Dancers" by one of America's most prominent musicians. You are invited, no matter your religious background or where you might be on your spiritual journey. The very nature of this work is to encourage the continuing search for meaning in our spiritual lives.

Our third reflection of the healings in the Gospels will take place on Thursday, October 23, 6:30 to 8:00 pm. We will meet in St. Mark's Common Room, or you can join us on Zoom. Small refreshments and drinks are provided. All are warmly welcome!

Please consider bringing your favorite prayer on healing.
