We welcome the return of the sale, back after a several-year hiatus. A one-day event at the Library, 9 am to noon, it will feature annuals, perennials and more along with a raffle for gift certificates and garden-related gifts. Tickets are available at the Library. This event is sponsored by the Friends of the Pelham Library. We're still accepting plant donations. If you are dividing your plants and have something to share please pot them up and bring them to the library on Friday, May 10 between 1 and 4:30. Plants should be potted up at least a few days in advance and kept in the shade so they won't be shocked and wilted on the day of the sale.

Thurs May 16, "Jonathan Edwards and the Gospel of Love" by Dr. Ronald Story.

Author Ronald Story will speak about his newly published book. Jonathan Edwards has long epitomized the Puritan preacher as fiery scold, fixated on the inner struggle of the soul and the eternal flames of hell. In this book, Ronald Story offers a fundamentally different view of Edwards, revealing a profoundly social minister who preached a gospel of charity and community bound by love. This event is co-sponsored by the Pelham Library and the Pelham Historical Society.

Mon, May 20, New England Gravestones.

Al and Betsy McKee, gravestone researchers, will present a slide show and talk about the causes of death recorded on early gravestones.

For information contact Barbara Jenkins, 253-2929. Sponsored by the Historical Society
