Thank You

 

The Barnstead Historical Society would like to thank everyone who came out on a cold Saturday to help make this year’s Christmas Sale a great success.

 

To our vendors and crafters, your participation was greatly appreciated by the Society and the community. We hope you are willing and able to participate in future events we hold in town.

 

To Neva Dun Farm, Bill Carpenter, Jeannie Terry and Denise Adjutant, the raffle items were a huge it! Thank you so much for your donation to our cause.

 

We would also like to thank Duane Family Farm for the donation of mulled cider. It was enjoyed by many and made the Town Hall smell wonderful!

 

To our volunteers, to whom we are indebted, your hard work made this event go off seamlessly. The continued support of the Board of Selectmen is also much appreciated. Allowing us the use of the space above the hall to store and work on our collection is invaluable. Many positive comments were received on the three display cases that have been added to the Hall to showcase our items. If you haven’t had the opportunity, please take a peek the next time you are doing business with the Town.

 

Finally, we would also like to extend our gratitude to both The Suncook Valley Sun and The Baysider for continuing to provide a media outlet for our events. Merry Christmas to all and we look forward to seeing you in 2019!

 


 

Candlelight Christmas Eve Service in North Barnstead At 7PM

Barnstead christmas eve CCNB.jpg

The Congregational Church of North Barnstead, UCC, is not on the main road, nor in the center of the community, in fact people might say we are “on the edge” of the community. For those who find our little church off the beaten path, the welcome is wide and real. 

 

We are an “open and affirming” church of the United Church of Christ, which means, “no matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey; no matter who you love, you are welcome!” Our message to all who walk through our doors is one of acceptance and inclusion.

 

On Christmas Eve at 7 pm, we will gather together for candlelight worship. We will hear beautiful music, sing traditional carols, and hear the Christmas story told in a way that all ages can hear it. 

 

We understand that for some, attending a worship service may bring on some anxiety. People wonder if the experience will be a positive one. 

 

Maybe you have been away from the church for a long time, or…

 

…you have no experience of attending church but are longing more meaning in your life.

 

…you have had a negative experience of Christianity and have felt excluded. 

 

…you are more spiritual than religious, yet you are seeking a community where you can join with others around issues of justice and peace.  

 

Find your way to the “edge of the community.” You will find people with similar needs and experiences. Good things are happening at the Congregational Church of North Barnstead, United Church of Christ, 504 North Barnstead Road, Center Barnstead, NH. We look forward to greeting you on Christmas Eve or on any Sunday. Worship is always at 10 am with programming for children. We are an Open and Affirming congregation of the United Church of Christ and we are an A2A, Accessible to All Congregation.

 

Drive north on Rte. 28, beyond the center of Barnstead, turn right on Peacham Road, then right on North Barnstead Road. The church is ¼ mile on the left. Parking is roadside however there are accessible spaces. The Church is fully accessible and welcomes squirmy children and adults!

Christmas Eve Service

 

Christmas already, are you kidding me!?!  How come I don’t feel like Christmas? In the midst of the wonder and expectation of the Christmas season, many of us might feel out of step with the joy and excitement of Christmas.  With the busyness of the Christmas season and the pressures of life sometimes the “happy” holidays just sneak up on us before we know it!

 

Plan on coming to the Christmas Eve Service at Center Barnstead Christmas Church at 6 PM and get yourself ready for the big day!!  Bring your family, bring a friend, every family will go home with a Christmas Gift.  Come and create a lasting memory this Christmas Eve at the Center Barnstead Christmas Church, located right next to the town hall.  Any questions please visit our website Centerbarnsteadcc.org or call the church at 269-8831.

Aaron David Lank

Barnstead Lank 2.jpg

Aaron Lank, 48, of Bow passed away on December 7th, 2018 at Concord Hospital after a brave battle with cancer. Aaron is survived by his wife of 24 years, Linda (Bettez) Lank, his mother Margie (Morse) Lank, two brothers Stephen Lank and his wife Kim and Joshua Lank and his wife Valerie, nephews Aiden and Collin along with many aunts, uncles and cousins. He was predeceased by his father, Stephen. Aaron was born in Concord, NH on July 4th, 1970. 

 

Aaron attended Pittsfield High School. He had a love of chemistry which led him to want to start a business in water treatment. He started his business, Aaron Water Systems LLC, in 1997. Aaron put forth all of his knowledge and commitment to excellence in making his business a great success. Aaron took pride in being able to help all of his customers and built great relationships with them along the way.

 

Aaron was an avid golfer. He played for many years at Beaver Meadow Golf Course in Concord. In recent years, he was a member at Montcalm Golf Club in Enfield, NH. Aaron loved the game and everything that went along with it - the competition, the camaraderie and the challenge. His quick wit and hearty laugh will be greatly missed among the many friends he has played with over the years.

 

Anyone that knew Aaron would know he was a loving, kind, caring, genuine and thoughtful man. People took an instant liking to him as he had a way to engage in conversations with anyone from politics to food. He enjoyed life to the fullest, looked for the good rather than the bad and enriched the lives of his family and friends. Aaron will be forever missed and never forgotten. 

 

Per Aaron’s wishes there will be no services, but a celebration of Aaron’s life will be planned at a future date.
