Two Hanover kids helping those in need

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

This just in from Hanover High students Lexie and Kasey Schiller and their
mom Erin! This is Lexie and Kasey’s second year helping with the Father
Bill’s wish list – Hanover is proud of you two!

Who: Lexie and Kasey Schiller

What: Father Bill’s and MainSpring Wish List (see attached)

Message: Do you ever find brand new things, still wrapped up with the tags
still on them in your closets? Maybe it’s a shower curtain liner you will
never use because you have a shower door now; twin sheet sets for your
children’s beds only they don’t have twin beds anymore. Maybe it’s a
pair of shoes purchased on a whim that you have never worn or a sweater
from your mother-in-law that you could never bring yourself to wear! It
feels great to de-clutter your house of this stuff, but it feels even more
GREAT when you know that there are people in need that will truly benefit
from them. Please consider donating your new/un-used items OR make a small
donation to help Lexie and Kasey fulfill the attached wish list for Father
Bill’s and MainSpring.

Where: John Curtis Library or Venmo

How: Two ways from now until January 25th:
1. Drop off new/unused items in the bin at John Curtis Library in Hanover
2. Venmo donation to purchase items @lexie-schiller-2 (placing Father
Bill’s in notation)

Why: To provide help and hope to individuals and families facing a housing
crisis on the South Shore and across Southern Massachusetts.

For more information, please contact their mom (Erin) at
eschill2011@gmail.com .

Countdown to Christmas Concert

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

The Lutheran Church of the Cross is thrilled to announce a free family
concert, COUNTDOWN TO CHRISTMAS CONCERT to celebrate the joy of music this
holiday season. The concert will be on Saturday, November 22nd, 2025, at
2:00 p.m. at Lutheran Church of the Cross, located at 77 Rockland Street.
The concert is their gift to the community and will feature festive music
with traditional Christmas Carols and contemporary holiday tunes to
entertain all ages.

They are pleased to present “The Victorian Carolers of Boston,” a
well-known professional a Capella quartet, who dress in mid-19th century
(1840’s to 1860’s) clothing. The quartet has been together for many
years and performs all over New England throughout the year. Director and
leader of the quartet Danny Bolton explained, “Our quartet loves to sing
and bring the joy of music to everyone, but Christmas time is our
favorite.”

Also performing is 12-year-old Miguel Ferreira. Miguel taught himself and
began playing the piano at an extremely early age; after church service he
would play the piano in the social hall. With consistent practice and
self-study, everyone witnessed Miguel’s talent grow. Miguel was looking
for a new challenge and so he mastered playing the organ. His mastery of
the organ seems effortless, and everyone, including experienced
professional musicians, music teachers and audiences, are in awe during his
performances. He recently performed a two-hour organ concert at the
Lutheran Church of the Cross consisting of all Bach compositions to raise
funds for a young five-year-old with cancer.

Matt MacDougall grew up singing in the children, youth, and adult choirs of
the Lutheran Church of the Cross, and will be the tenor soloist. Male tenor
soloists possess the highest male singing voices and are in demand by
choirs and professional operas due to their rarity. Matt’s voice is known
for its power and bright, resonant high notes. With a strong background and
study of music, he is still passionately active in the music scene and will
be returning to his hometown church for this concert to the delight of all.

The concert will include a short intermission with light refreshments in
the social hall. There will be opportunity to purchase raffle tickets for a
Thanksgiving basket or a ticket for their Christmas Festival Raffle with
three great prizes.
Celebrate the season of hope, peace, love and joy with the music of
talented local artists and musicians. Let the COUNTDOWN TO CHRISTMAS
CONCERT start your holidays with cheer. For more information email:
admin@crosshanover.org or call: 781-826-5121 .

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Halloween Candy Drive for the Troops!
Let Troop 82282 help you get rid of that leftover Halloween candy! Hanover
Girl Scout Troop 82282 is hosting their annual Halloween Candy Drive again
this year! The girls will package up all donated candy and bring to
Carepacks Inc., an organization based out of Weymouth that sends care
packages to deployed troops throughout the world. They encourage you to
send them your Halloween leftovers and make a donation to the Food Pantry,
in place of purchasing additional candy to donate!

When: Collecting donations from 10/31-11/8

Where: Leave donations in orange bins outside Sing Explore Create, 33
Rockland Street, Hanover

What: Accepting donations of candy (get rid of those Halloween leftovers!).
Candy should be individually wrapped, but sending along a random assortment
of trick or treat candy is welcome and encouraged! For example, does not
need to be an unopened bag of fun size candy bars, but can be the few you
may have leftover. They will be bagging and packaging it all up.

Questions? Reach out to Nicole at ncraven8@gmail.com or see the attached
flyer.

Thank you for your support of Troop 82282’s fall service project!
