Only 25 miles to Nashua. 1st. leg. If you are not already in, send your name to fay@temv.org.

Yard Sale Gala
Sunday, August 6th, 8 a.m. – 2 p.m.
Kids’ Activities, Food and Beverages!
Donations for the Yard Sale are showing up at TEMV! Before August 6, go through your belongings and put those you don’t want or need in a box or bag to bring to TEMV. If you want the building open for delivery, email yardsale@temv.org and we’ll make sure that it is. Remember, the more items you donate, the more TEMV can make, and we all know our temple needs the funds. If you have any questions, please send an email to yardsale@temv.org.
Please do not put your donations in the religious school — we’ll just have to move them upstairs.
We’ll be posting flyers at as many locations as possible, pricing items beginning July 24, and selling from 8:00 am – 2 pm on August 6; if you want to help with any of this, send an email to yardsale@temv.org. The more people get involved, the more fun we’ll all have while we make money for our temple.
Pizza TEMV Benefit
The Papa Gino’s fundraiser was a smash success. At least 18 people gathered for dinner and conversation at Papa Gino’s in Chelmsford Sunday evening. There were also an unknown number of online orders and deliveries. Thank you to everyone who came out in support of TEMV. We earned 20% of all qualifying orders.
Lay Leaders Needed
We are looking for lay leaders for August 11 and 25. Please contact Karen if interested.
Volunteer to Host an Oneg
Visit the signup page to choose your date or email oneg@temv.org with your preferred dates. We ask all members to sign up to host twice. It’s one simple way to help the community!
