While it
actually precedes Fall once children are back it school it is time to look for
the change in the color of leaves and the crispness in the air. As the weather
forecasters have recently said September is on track to be the coolest in
forecasting records.

While the above
is correct, the number of people showing up for the monthly meal, program and
get together for many of the older members of the surrounding community began with
at least 80 in attendance. Many people are present shortly after members of the
church have set the tables and chairs for the guests. Coffee is ready and a
number of our friends are there to sip with their friends. Around 11:30 AM the program this month was
announced by Carol Bruneau who introduced Melanie Cahill from the South
Portland Housing Authority, the Director of Operations. Her theme was on Home Modifications
for seniors. She also said that seniors who qualify may be a able to draw some
monies from a grant that ends at the end of this year.

We are
blessed with a great chef in Brad Morrison and he often has help from other
males and females in the kitchen. On this occasion he prepared chicken lasagna
that was very tasty and many of the guests raved about it. Rosemary had
prepared tollhouse squares for dessert. At least 23 members of the congregation
were able to avail themselves of the opportunity to serve, to set up and take down
the chairs and tables.
