It fulfills the important role of the local church and continues to serve many people in our island community. The church needs to replenish the funds which were expended to become disaffiliated from the UMC, as well as needed capital improvements to both the church and parsonage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the upcoming weeks we will start the silent or initial phase of the campaign. The Fundraising Committee (Julie, Judy and Emily) is seeking 100% support and participation from the church members before they reach out to the public. We know that you all give generously to our church already (time, talent & treasure), but we need a strong statement to those we will be approaching outside the church for donations. One member has agreed to start the Campaign 2024 donations with $1,000 check. Our goal is $500,000. <\/strong>To give, make the check out to Chilmark Church with Campaign 2024 in memo. We look forward to seeing you all at the Celebration Event (more information to follow) for church and community on Sunday, September 15. There will be an official announcement about Campaign 2024 at that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n NEW MEMBERS TO JOIN<\/p>\n\n\n\n Interested in learning more about Chilmark Community Church and understanding membership? If you are interested or have questions feel to talk to Rev. Charlotte ASAP or email the church at chilmarkchurch@gmail.com<\/a>. We will welcome new members into the church late July. <\/p>\n\n\n\n SUNDAY SCHOOL ASSISTANCE<\/p>\n\n\n\n As the church’s Sunday School continues to grow Claire Ganz (Superintendent\/Lead teacher) would like to create a team of helpers to assist when needed.
