Presents:
The Yale Whiffenpoofs
Every year, 14 senior Yale men are selected to be in the
Whiffenpoofs, the world's oldest and best-known collegiate a cappella group.
Founded in 1909, the "Whiffs" began as a senior quartet that met for
weekly concerts at Mory's Temple Bar, the famous Yale tavern.
Today, the group has become one of Yale's most celebrated and hallowed
traditions.

Needs your STUFF!
May Event!
Our Youth Group Needs You!
Common', you got stuff. He has stuff, they have more stuff and she has different
stuff! Spring cleaning is on the way and one way to be happier is to get rid of
YOUR STUFF and make your life simpler (known medical fact to reduce stress!)
Donations are being sought for our Youth Group Garage Sale Fundraiser – coming soon
in May – date TBA.
All household items welcome – please no clothes. And please use judgement as
to 'goods' versus 'junk'!
Thanks for your support!

Adult Education for April
"Getting to Know You"
The Adult Education Committee will present a series of Sunday morning classes
in April on the topic "Getting to Know You".
We will be exploring awareness of cultural differences in styles of communication
with a goal of enriched participation in group discussions. This, in turn, will
lead to greater mutual understanding as we study "Getting to Know You"!
Please join us during Adult Education Hour after Service!

Attention!
Families With Babies And Toddlers!
Open Invitation for Interest!
Attention, Families With Babies And Toddlers!
Would you be interested in participating in activities with other young
families in our church? We would like to start a monthly pot-luck dinner
group (probably to include the babies and toddlers) or some other kind
of social group specifically designed for families with very young children.
The first step is to find out who is interested and gather ideas about
how such a group should be organized, so please contact Jane
Harlin at 201-447-1968 or jcharlin@aol.com to share your ideas.

Do We Make a Difference? You Bet We Do!
Sometimes, after spending so much of our personal time, effort and yes – money, we
wonder whether the work we have done has had any impact at all. Certainly, that is
one factor that causes each of us to hesitate when asked to contribute to church
activities and leadership. But if you think that way, that there is little return
for the effort, that no one really cares, then we challenge you to look at the faces
of our pre-school and Sunday school youngsters, to those of our older members when
we share education or luncheons, or those of the homeless when we share supper in
Hackensack or an evening with them in Ridgewood. Take some time to learn more
about the impact that RUMC has in the area and in our Missionary support! Yes,
we do make a difference. And the next time you are called on to help, think about
this and say "Yes”. Believe us, it is all worth it!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Do You Make a Difference? You Bet You Do!
Whatever your personal interests are, we have a home for you! Some of us are
cooks! Some of us enjoy knitting. Others enjoy a good book and friends with
which to discuss it. Can you lift 200 pounds? Well, maybe not by yourself, but
when joined by nine other people, each only has to lift 20 pounds and you can
do that!
Do you want to contribute energy to defeat human trafficking and slavery of
women and children around the world? If so, this is the place to be (click
here to read more and to download
a printable flyer!). Do you want to help build a house? We do that, too!
Some people think that choirs are only made up of trained singers, but
remember the Mormon Tabernacle Choir is made of no professional singers, only
120 people who enjoy bringing song to the world! Yes, you do make a
difference and we can help make your dreams come true! Come join us
for a week or two and enjoy our camaraderie!
