Worship on Sunday, September 27 will be livestreamed from the Southern New England Conference Annual Meeting.
There will be a Church Council meeting immediately following the service so come join us to watch together in the Sayles Memorial Chapel or watch the livestream at home.
To follow the worship online, click on the picture below. It will bring you to the SNEUCC webpage that has the Vimeo video right there and it also has two links below in case that is not working inc. (Technology is wonderful....when it works, so they built in a little extra in case it isn't!)
The Order of Worship is also available on that page, but I've included a copy here. (There is that "just in case" for technology!)

If you have any Prayers of Concern or Celebration you would like to share with the congregation in the Weekly Update, you can email them to the office (chapelstreetucc@gmail.com) or call the church and leave a voicemail message (722-7934) and they will be included.

We have a new Little Free Library!
What is it? The Little Free Library movement is a book-sharing concept among neighbors or within a larger community. This movement works by encouraging people to place fun, tiny libraries right in their front yards. People can borrow a book, read it, and then return it when they are finished, or they can replace it with another book instead. This is a great way for children and adults to increase the number (and types!) of books they have access to while also developing their passion for reading.
Those who borrow books don't have a set borrowing time or a limit to the number of books they can take. Instead, this project works on the honor system. You also don't have to give back that specific book if you’ve found one that you really love. However, you are encouraged to swap out a book to replace the one you borrowed, ensuring the library is always full for visitors.
The movement also provides financial and environmental benefits: Not only can buying books for one-time use be expensive, but it can also lead to a lot of paper waste. The Little Free Library movement is a good opportunity to encourage people to reuse items while also increasing the number of books you can get access to. It’s a win-win!
Thanks to Tennille Monteiro for spearheading this project!
