FUNERAL HOME FINDS NEW LIFE...

​FUNERAL HOME FINDS NEW LIFE AS SANCTUARY MINISTRY CENTER!
 
Ashburnham –The former funeral home at 17 Main Street is finding new life with three organizations that share space: Sanctuary, City on a Hill Arts, and the Christian Healing Center of New England.
 
Sanctuary, a church plant that was birthed in 2013, now gathers each week on Sunday for morning worship as well as Bible studies and prayer gatherings mid-week. They had previously been renting the Ashby Elementary School, but 6 years of setting up and breaking down week after week was wearing thin.  When presented with the opportunity to breathe life into the funeral home, they jumped at the chance.
 
City on a Hill Arts, an off-shoot of Sanctuary, produces two major works per year.  This November they are thrilled to present Seven, a documentary play highlighting the real lives of women who overcame incredible odds to work for justice in their respective countries.  The chapel within the former funeral home will be transformed into an intimate performance space asSeventakes the stage November 8 and 9.
 
The Christian Healing Center, formerly housed upstairs at 56 Main Street, offers healing prayer for various concerns: physical, emotional and spiritual. In addition they offer training classes for those that desire to learn the intricacies of healing prayer.  They will be hosting an open house at their new location on Saturday, November 2ndfrom 10-12.
 
All three organizations welcome you to find out more by calling their new location at (978) 252-5733.
