Mid-Hudson Love In the Name of Christ is holding a Volunteer Orientation/Training workshop on Saturday, March 3, from 10 – 11 am. This is a perfect opportunity to learn more about Love INC, its ministries and its impact, and explore volunteer options in a ministry that is serving people in need. All are welcome – no obligation. The information session is scheduled for New Beginnings Church, 35 DeGarmo Road in Poughkeepsie. If you’re planning to attend, please RSVP to info@mhlinc.org

Looking for volunteers to help out at the Merillat House on the next two Saturdays, February 25 and March 3 beginning at 9am. There is still a lot of work to be done with cleaning and getting rid of stuff. If you can help, please contact Kurt Tegtmeier.
Children and their families are invited to Family Fun Night on Saturday, February 25th at 4:00. Come for games, crafts and fellowship! Bring a covered dish to share. Dessert will be provided. Sign up on your Connection Card or email me at s.silvern@hrcrca.org.
We are looking for someone who can help a couple of hours a week to maintain the HRC grounds during the mowing season (April – November). Also, we need someone who can help periodically in maintaining/servicing our grounds equipment (rider mowers, hand mowers, blowers, weed trimmers, chain saw, etc.). If you can help, please contact Bill Proal at 223-1607.
Mark you calendars! Sunday, April 8th is Easter Sunday, and you know what that means? Well, it means an early morning service, and then….the EASTER DAWN BREAKFAST!! It was truly a wonderful time last year, and I am looking to see who is interested in helping out this year. I will warn you in advance, that we start at 5:00AM on Easter Morning, and setup will hopefully be the day before. If you are interested, please check off the EASTER DAWN BREAKFAST TEAM box on your Connection Card. Meetings will start the end of February. Contact: Kurt Tegtmeier.
