The Women's group meets once a month in the church, usually on the third Saturday at 10:30AM.    All women of the church are welcome.  Why not check us out, we guarantee good fun and good fellowship, as we put our time and talents to work for Jesus.

NEWS:
At its October meeting, the MIPC Women's Group started a new bible study, entitled "The Blessings of Friendship".  We will be continuing with this study throughout our fall and winter meetings.  Not only is the study very interesting but promoted many precious moments of sharing between all the members.  Following the study, we put aside our books and bibles and took out our glue guns and craft supplies to make wonderful (if lop-sided) Halloween pumpkings out of cloth, fibrefill, beans and other necessary bits and pieces.   A hilarious time of fellowship was had by all.  You wouldn't believe how difficult it was to make those pumpkins behave!   Please see the pictures page!

At this meeting we discussed what to do with the over $800 raised by this year's yard sale.  No decisions have been made so far, but many ideas are "in work".   Thanks to the Paprocki family for allowing the sale to take place on their property on Route 25.  Without its yard sale money, the Women's Group would not be able to buy those little extras needed for our church during the year.

News of the November Meeting
We are delighted to announce that we will be welcoming the Reverend Kazy Hinds of the Peconic Campus Mininstry, to our next meeting on November 13th.    Reverend Kazy is no stranger to our congregation, as she has filled in for our own Pastor Rich a couple of times; and she and her husband Pastor Joe, are personal friends of the Holmes family. She is coming to talk to us about her student's new "Shoe Box" mission  project.    The Women's group will be helping to put together shoe boxes filled with essential items that some of her students will be taking to one of the Indian reservations in the Spring of 2005.   All women of the church are invited to join us at this meeting, which should be very interesting and informative.  The meeting starts at 10:30 a.m. and will be held in Fellowship Hall.  Tea, coffee and cake will
be served.

Blessings and Peace
Valerie Ford
