Come visit the horses, their owners, and the baby foals. There will be
cart rides, hot dogs, hamburgers, chips, soda, and much more.
We are looking forward to a fun day.
Just a reminder that the Barnstead Library is having a huge book
sale. We did not have a sale during 2011, so this one will be a big one.
We ask for a "donation" rather than a "set" individual price on books,
so come and take lots.
The sale begins on Wednesday, April 11th from 1-5 pm; Thursday, April
12th from 5-8 pm; Friday, April 13th from 2-5 pm and Saturday, April
14th from 9 am to noon. See you at the Library!

John Page, Director of WOL South Africa Speaking At
Center Barnstead
Christian Church
This Sunday, April 15th, John Page, Director of Word of Life South
Africa, will be speaking at the Center Barnstead Christian Church. John
and his wife, Christy Page have been serving with Word of Life since
1992. They worked in Schroon Lake, NY for 13 years at the Bible
Institute and as Director of the Word of Life Ranch. In January 2006,
God moved their family to Johannesburg, South Africa, where they
continue to work with youth, but in a new country.
South Africa is a country of diversity, not just in the scenery, but
more so in politics, races, and religions. With an average life
expectancy of 49 years, average age population of 24 years old, and a
youth population of 70% of the total population, there is no shortage of
work to do. The focus of their work is with young people believing that
this is where the biggest opportunity for change is… personally as well
as countrywide.
Some of the tools they utilize are Bible clubs, drama in high schools,
camps, mission trips, leadership training, sports, and an intensive one
year program where 10-13 university aged youth live with them for an
intense year of Bible school, discipleship, ministry training and life
skills training.
Come and hear what John Page has to share from God’s Word this Sunday.
Sunday School begins at 9:00 am and Morning Worship follows at 10:00 am.
The Center Barnstead Christian Church is located on Route 126, next to
the Town Hall. For more information, please call the church at 269-8831.

Obituaries
Arlene J. Wicks
Arlene J. Wicks went to be with the Lord April 6th, joining her beloved
husband Harry and granddaughter Cami Fiske.
Arlene lived most of her life in Pittsfield and Barnstead, spending her
last years being lovingly cared for at the Merrimack County Nursing Home
in Boscawen. An avid seamstress and cook, Arlene also loved knitting and
tending to her flowers. Side by side with Harry, some of her happiest
hours were spent hosting gatherings in their home, including the 55-plus
club they started in the 80s that continues today.
Arlene leaves her daughter and son-in-law, Jan and Charlie Fiske; nieces
Darla Teston and Sharon Doherty, and nephew Tom Prive; grandchildren
Chuck, Phyllis, Robert, and Chris Fiske, Matthew, Angela and Justin
Wicks, and several great-grandchildren.
A celebration of life will be held at the family’s convenience. In lieu
of flowers, donations can be made to the Merrimack County Nursing Home
Residents’ Fund.
The Cremation Society of New Hampshire, Boscawen Office, is assisting
the family with arrangements. To view an online memorial please go to
