UPDATED DIRECTORY
The directory has been updated with information for Carol Owen and Pastor Thom. Make sure you download it, as it will be deleted. Get the directory here: https://www.peterboroughumc.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Photo-Directory-July-2022.pdf

YOUTH HIKE
We are considering leading a youth hike on Gap Mountain on Saturday, July 30 starting at 9 am to pick blueberries. This would be a hike for the older youth (and any adults that want to come along). This hike would be about 1 1/2 miles up a rather steep mountain. Contact Hiel Lindquist if you are interested in participating.

ACCESSIBILITY
Now that we have the screens and sound system that have increased accessibility, we are adjusting the print bulletin. You may have noticed a larger font. This week we are debuting a streamlined bulletin of one page, which saves paper. This looks very much like the bulletin format we used 5 years ago. All of the information you might need will be on the screens, and can also be accessed in the hymnals, bibles, and communion laminates in the pews. If you have any feedback on the usability of anything related to the service we would be happy to hear it.
