Community Close and Far

We feel so helpless in this time of national tragedy. What can we do to support the people of the tight-knit community devastated by the horrific tragedy in Newtown, Connecticut?

A Claremont UCC member contacted the Congregational church in Newtown and got a list of addresses where anyone can send cards of condolences and healing thoughts to not only the people of that church, but to Sandy Hook Elementary School as well as the first responders, most of whom are volunteers.
