Welcome Sunday will be September 15. Our children will help lead worship. We will be blessing backpacks and resuming church school during worship. There will be food and fun activities after worship. We are a welcoming Christian community.
Several events are happening in September at First Church, An Open and Affirming Church, to welcome in the new church year. Worship is held every Sunday beginning on September 8 at 10 a.m.
Tom Carr, pastor of Second Baptist Church in Suffield, 100 N. Main St. will be leading a series of 90 minute exploratory presentations about humanity’s “New Story.”
Anyone who lives or has lived in Suffield knows that Suffield is a town that draws people together to help and give support in any kind of crisis. When someone is facing hardship, it is never faced alone. Scott Flanagan of Suffield learned at the beginning of June that he has aggressive, diffuse large cell B Non-Hodgkins stage 4 Lymphona (involving bone, lymph nodes and viscera). Scott had been working as a Physical Therapist but had to go on family leave, which ended his compensation. The family is taking one day at a time, with their strong faith in God and family, hoping for the best.

Dictionaries have been around a long time, perhaps beginning on cuneiform tablets around 2300 BCE (or BC if you prefer) in the area of modern-day Syria. In 1604, the first English alphabetical dictionary was published.
