THE SCENE
The SCENE (grades 1-5) met on Thursday, January 23. Thanks to Joy and Jeremiah Daley’s family for providing our afternoon snack (delicious apple crisp that Joy made herself!). We enjoyed the slightly warmer weather with the chance to play outside with snow tag and paint with snow markers, and had a good discussion about fairness.. Our next meeting is Thursday, February 20 from 330-5 PM. Please contact Jean Crowley (464-4013; jcrowley@gsinet.net) or Barbara Daley (464-5239; bdaley@tds.net for more information.

RBA
RBA is busy fundraising for our Washington DC adventure February 21-26. Spare change jars are available at the church (please let us know if you would like us to deliver one to you) and we are still selling shares of stock in RBA. We have a small group going to DC this time and will be joined by several members of InCasts. We love to welcome new members to our group. Please contact Jenna Vaughan (910-709-6132; jennakaylewis1996@gmail.com), Tyler Vaughan (491-4126; tylerrayvaughan@gmail.com) or Barbara Daley (464-5239; bdaley@tds.net) for more information.

RBA SHARES OF STOCK FUNDRAISER FOR OUR WASHINGTON DC MISSION/ROAD TRIP

RBA is beginning their major fundraiser, which we hope will substantially reduce the individual costs of our road trip/mission trip to Washington DC on February 21-26, 2020. As we have done in the past, we will again be selling shares of stock in our upcoming mission trip. This has been a fantastic fundraiser for us in the past and we look forward to a repeat of that great fundraising.

By purchasing shares in our RBA Corporation, you will be supporting an incredible, transforming experience for our church community’s junior high youth – in addition to realizing firsthand the benefits of helping others, they will also have the opportunity to experience Washington DC, an area of the country where most of our RBA youth have not yet traveled.

Shares of stock are being sold for $10 each – feel free to buy as many shares as you like! Shareholders will receive a stock certificate for the shares they have purchased, a personalized postcard written by an RBA member while on the trip, and an invitation to the Shareholders’ Banquet in March (we will prepare a delicious meal while sharing our experiences of our road trip/mission trip- only shareholders will be admitted free), and our undying gratitude to you for making this trip possible and for showing our young people how vital they are to our church family and to our world.

Those of you who have attended the shareholders’ banquets in the past will attest to the fact that it is a great experience to listen to the youth talk so enthusiastically about their mission work.

Please fill out a form and drop it off (checks made payable to RBA) at coffee hour, mail it to Smith Memorial Congregational Church, PO Box 672, Hillsboro, NH 03244, attn. RBA, or give it to Barbara Daley, Jenna or Tyler Vaughan, or any RBA member.
