It has been some time since we have recruited new teachers to help with our programs. We are looking for individuals who are willing to
devote three Sunday mornings in a row to a classroom. Responsibilities will include simple lesson presentations, supervision of the classroom,
and assisting the children in preparations for Family Sundays (first Sunday of each month, beginning in October). We are hoping for three or four
individuals to take on each block of Sundays, beginning after Labor Day. Joyful and mindful training (and tasty snacks) will be provided before you
begin, as well as ongoing support. All individuals are encouraged to participate in this wonderful ministry to young people!!

We will continue to get together as a group a few times just to "hang out" and keep the connections alive,
and hopefully make NEW connections! These get togethers will be low-key; trip to the beach, maybe a little
putt-putt, how about some wiffle ball? Who knows! We do know that we will have fun. We are inviting those
teens (entering grades 9-12) who would like to be added to the SPY contact list to contact Kellie at
church 224-2523 or email kelliedenoncourt@gmail.com.
We will let you know about upcoming SPY events!

pick-up and delivery, apartment set-up, grocery shopping, appointment transportation, and application assistance (social
security/housing/food stamp/etc.).
If you are willing to volunteer, please contact Abigail Stoutimore as soon as possible. She can be reached
via email at astoutimore@lssnorth.org or by phone at 603.224.8111 x 2260.
