New Life at the Farm Market: On June 23, July 28, and August 28, New Life will set up a table at the ARA Farm Market in Lincoln. Time is 9:00-12:30. The Outreach Committee is coordinating the 3 events as a fundraiser and to bring awareness of our church to the area. Our table will include donations of crafts, baked goods, jams, preserved goods, and other items made by our church community. Two helpers are needed at the table for each event. A sign-up sheet will be available. Donations may be brought to the church on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. Baked goods can be delivered directly to the market site by 8:30 a.m. on the Saturday or picked up by someone on our team. For more information please contact Lila, Carol, Lois, or Lucia. Thank you for your participation in these events!
