Additional Information:

The alarm system at the meetinghouse is experiencing some difficulties. There may be a beeping coming from the storage closet in the gathering room. It can be stopped by opening the monitoring box and pressing the RESET button which is under the error code box.

As a way of using the meetinghouse for community outreach, a program from Hospice of Cincinnati has been scheduled for May 21. We encourage everyone to come and bring a F/friend to the 7:30 PM program dealing with strategies to reduce stress in your life.

The following minute was approved at Business Meeting on 4/26: Eastern Hills Friends will use the same Quaker process of support, clearness, and ceremony for any two adults wishing to be married under the care of the Meeting. Upon the recommendation of the Clearness Committee, we will marry in a Friends' Meeting for Worship any couple that wishes to make, with Divine Assistance, a lifelong commitment to each other.

If you have not already signed up to furnish food for our 56 visitors and to help on May 24 please contact Henrietta Ballinger at 871-0783 or f.h.ballinger@gmail.com.

      Message from Mary Kay Rehard about the next Peace Church Brunch which will be on Saturday, May 16, 2009 (10:00 AM to 12:00 PM) at Community Friends Meeting House:
      I hope by now you've all received the invitation to the next Peace Church Brunch, on the "Peaceable Kingdom" theme. You can view it here:

      We hope it can be outdoors, and have even more fun looking around the grounds & woods at Community Friends Meeting! Note that children of all ages are invited to bring their favorite stuffed animal for an intergenerational activity, building our own Mini Peaceable Kingdom of sorts! If it rains, we'll still hold it indoors!
