CHURCH CHOIR MEETING<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sean McMahon, Music Minister, would like to meet with those who have expressed an interest in an occasional choir for Chilmark Church. He has set aside this Sunday and next Sunday from 10:10 – 10:40am for brief get-togethers. The purpose is to start on one simple choral piece and explore other selections for the future. Pass this on to others who may be interested. No past experience required!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
CONDOLENCES<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With deep sadness the church acknowledges the passing of two island residents and beloved children of God:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Janice E. Haynes, a well known islander, Ag Fair fixture and West Tisbury resident. She was a family member of Lynne Irons and Violet Southwick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Carol M. Mays, a Chilmark resident who passed away in New Hampshire. She was a Mayhew and part of Ted, Judy and Sarah’s family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They will be deeply missed. May their memory be a blessing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
