New Street Open 2/14 for Worship

by NSUMC on February 13, 2010

To Members, Constituents and Friends of New Street UMC  —

We will have Sunday Worship Service tomorrow, February 14, at the regular time.

However, Jim Hoadley and his snow shoveling crew have only been able to shovel out about four parking spaces near the church, so parking is very
limited. Therefore, Jim (as Administrative Chair) and Pastor Dee-Ann have decided that a shuttle system from the Shepherdstown Middle School Parking
Lot is the most feasible way of getting everyone into Church.  Please park at the Middle School Parking Lot and wait for familiar persons with shuttle
vehicles to get you to the Church.  It will help greatly, if you arrive at the parking lot a little earlier than usual.

Because of the iced up steps into Wesley Hall and the Narthex Steps on the Fellowship Hall side, we will enter the church from either the Narthex steps
by the corner or by the Church Street ramp.

Also, there will be no Fellowship Hour tomorrow.

Incidently, kudos to Jim Hoadley and his volunteer crew of snow shovelers for all their hard work on our behalf.  At the risk of missing someone, I
will still try to name all who helped clear the snow — Margaret Rose and Steve Smith, Bill Newfelt, amd Steve and Nancy Dickey.

Should you have any further questions, please call Jim Hoadley – (304)876-2408 — or myself (304) 876-2850.
