Miles Of Pennies - Habitat for Humanity
Don't forget! All those pennies and other coins (bills too) add up to a new, safe house for a needy family who meets the Habit for Humanity guidelines.  We can all be thankful we have a roof over our heads.  Let's help others reach that goal.  Please remeber to bring your pennies and other change and drop them in the jar at the back of the sanctuary.                                   www.habitat.org 

Alcoholics Anonymous
AA meets at our Church Tuesdays at 8:00 pm 
What is  AA?  Alcoholics  Anonymous is an international fellowship of men and
women who have had a  drinking problem. It is nonprofessional, self-supporting,
nondenominational,  multiracial, apolitical, and available almost everywhere.
There are no age or  education requirements. Membership is open to anyone who
wants to do something  about his or her drinking problem.  For more info and a schedule of other meetings, click the link below and go to Ashtabula Area Intergroup Office (AAIGO).

Women Undecided is a group of crafters who meet monthly to share projects and fellowship.  Most recently they made caddies for the walkers of local nursing home patients and held a quilt raffle.  This committed group of ladies combine their love for crafting with a desire to help others; a decidedly winning combination.

Women United

This group of ladies helps form the backbone of the Church through their united efforts.  They join together to offer comfort and food to families in times of crisis.  Provide food for our adopted families at Christmas.  And are always ready to step up when they see a need.  They embody the notion that alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.  With God, all things are possible.  Women United meets monthly to share faith and fellowship.

The Austinburg First United Church of Christ is a constant participant of Country days, lending our building and support to this celebration of our community’s strong belief in old fashioned traditions.  Country Days has been enjoyed annually for over 30 years by generations of  Austinburg families.
