GUEST PREACHER – SUNDAY AUGUST 4th<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Rev. Nell Fields will be leading Chilmark Church on Sunday August 4 in Charlotte’s absence. Some of you may remember her from when she preached here as a seminary student some years ago. Nell joined the Waquoit Congregational Church (East Falmouth) as minister in October 2010.  Formerly an editor and journalist, Rev. Nell spent the bulk of her career as a publisher for a LA publicly-traded newspaper company as well as in  management in technology and financial services. Since starting at Waquoit, Nell has started a number of new ministries on the Cape, including Safe Plates, an annual fundraiser for various social justice causes; the Waquoit Farmers Market;  a yearly Animal Blessing and Animal Fair for area nonprofit animal groups to raise awareness and donations; Falmouth Builds Together, a community-wide effort to provide the needed resources to help build Habitat for Humanity homes in Falmouth, and the state\u2019s first \u201cDeath Caf\u00e9,\u201d a monthly gathering for people to talk about that taboo subject \u2013 death. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will be a delight to see her again while Charlotte is away to CT July 29th -August 4th. A 2010 photo with her therapy dog Goose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
