Yarn Ministry
The prayer shawl ladies are proud to announce that several new, beautiful hand-knit or crocheted shawls have been distributed to St. Joseph Hospital and the Hospice House in Merrimack this summer!
However, with cooler weather on the way, we have had pleas from both Hospice House and St. Joe's for all of the shawls or lap robes we can provide.
Unfortunately, our number of knitters has declined for various reasons. New members are always welcome! This ministry has provided warmth and love to the Community for almost 25 years!
We are always accepting donations of Yarn. (Pounder skeins for prayer shawls.) Donations may be left in the coatroom, in the bin marked "Yarn".
Thank you for your continued support!

Music Help Needed
The Parish of the Resurrection in Nashua, NH is looking for an Assistant Organist/Pianist to provide instrumental music for the 4:00 p.m. Mass on Saturdays and Holy Days, including Christmas.

The ideal candidate is someone who can play the organ and/or piano, is familiar with Catholic liturgical rites and practices, can work with the parish staff and other ministers and ministries of the parish, and can support the cantor through their instrumental music.
The Parish of the Resurrection is a vibrant Catholic community with a strong history of prayer, fidelity, and service to those who live and work in western Nashua. Due to the nature of this position, it is required that the incumbent be a practicing Roman Catholic who is registered and active in a parochial or religious community and complies with the Diocese of Manchester Code of Ministerial Conduct.
