November 21st, 6:00 pm • Brenda Quinn’s home, 185 Putney Hill Road, Hopkinton
The Girls’ Night Out – the monthly gathering of women of all ages from First Church – will open the doors of Brenda Quinn’s home on November 21st. This is a wonderful chance to catch up with old friends, to be able to follow up on all those conversations you start at the fellowship hour after church but don’t get to finish, or to touch base with some women you haven’t had a chance to chat with before. And November is a great time to join in if you haven’t attended before. The setting is informal, the mood is light, the agenda is non-existent. The point is just to gather and share some stories and maybe a few laughs.
All are welcome. Bring an appetizer or something to drink or just yourself. Call Judy Dibble if you need a ride (520-4844) or if you need directions call Brenda (746-2338).
The Thursday Morning Book Group, led by Rev. Crouch, meets every Thursday from 9:30-11:00 am in the Great Hall. The current book is Sermons by Harry Fosdick. All are welcome!
