Residents of Dedham are being targeted by phone scammers.

Many of these threats are directed toward Senior Citizens. Scams range from solicitors "selling" items and asking

for your credit card information to others pretending to be grandchildren who have been arrested and are in need of bail money and still more calling on behalf of false charities to help those areas such as Merrimack Valley and the southern region of our country who have recently experienced disasters. Please be aware when answering your phone that the person on the other end may be targeting you for money and may not be honest.

 

While we have yet to be "matched" with a family, Catholic Charities just notified us that there are a few families in the pipeline, including one with 5 members from Burundi. FINDING AN APPROPRIATE APARTMENTIS NOW OUR TOP PRIORITY!

 

Ideal specs:

3BR (or 2BR with large living room) in Dedham, Norwood, Hyde Park, Roslindale, West Roxbury, or Jamaica Plain.

Near public transportation, supermarkets 

Culturally diverse neighborhood

 

We have funds to cover the first 6 months' rent ($1,600-2,000 per mo.). The family will also receive transitional funds from the government and Catholic Charities. If you have any leads on real estate agents/owners who might be willing to help out, please contact Susan Angevin at (781) 326-7673 (land), (617) 519-5141 cell, or [email protected].

 

MANY THANKS!

The Feast of St. Michael and All Angels

138 Tremont Street, Boston, MA 02111

 

Reception following                               Clergy: White stoles  

England, 1976. Mrs. Creasy is missing and the Avenue is alive with whispers. The neighbors blame her sudden disappearance on the heat wave, but ten-year-olds Grace and Tilly aren't convinced, and decide to take matters into their own hands.

Spunky, spirited Grace and quiet, thoughtful Tilly go door to door in search of clues. The cul-de-sac starts to give up its secrets, and the amateur detectives uncover more than they ever imagined. A complicated history of deception begins to emerge-everyone on the Avenue has something to hide.

 

SUNDAY, October 7th

 

If you enjoy the movies....this is the group for you .

O nce a month (late Sunday afternoon) we will venture to the Dedham Community Theatre at 580 High Street to see a movie.   No need to RSVP, simply arrive for the movie and look for Reverend McCarley. Following the movie we will adjourn to a local eating establishment to reflect on the themes, acting, directing of the movie. Join us for lively discussion and entertainment that supports our local community!

                     if you have questions about this event

Are you interested in living more fully into your Baptism? 

Are you invested in learning more about the Episcopal tradition   with possible transfer of membership from another tradition?

Are you hoping to be confirmed in the spring?

Are you longing to renew your baptismal covenant in a more

    formal way of preparation?

If you answered YES to any of these questions the Adult Inquirer's Course is for you.

Beginning Sunday, October 14th , we will gather in the Vestry Room, following a brief interlude at the Fellowship Hour, to explore more deeply our Anglican faith and tradition.

 

October 14th  "Not Only With Our Lips, but in Our Lives: Praying as a Community"

October 21st  "The New Life of Grace: Baptismal Practice"

October 28th  "A Wonderful Sacrament: Eucharistic Beliefs & Practice"

November 4th  "A Great Cloud of Witnesses: The Communion of Saints"

November 11th  "Both in Mind & Body: Confession & Healing"

December 2nd  "All Times Are Your Seasons: The Church Calendar & the Liturgical Year"

December 9th  "Knowing our History"

December 16th  "Church Polity: Making Decisions the Anglican Way"

 

The foremost purpose of this class is to explore the breadth and depth of Episcopal thought and practice and, for those who are interested, to prepare for confirmation or reception in The Episcopal Church.  Our hope is that it will stimulate conversation, raise provocative questions rather than provide all the answers, and empower Inquirers to "take up the cross and follow Jesus of Nazareth."   For further information or to sign up contact Rev. Melanie McCarley at [email protected].
