Annual Potluck Supper!

Tuesday, September 22, 2026 at 6:30pm

St. Mary’s Episcopal Church Parish Hall

Dear TCF Central Middlesex Members,

Whether you attend our Concord or our Newton group, ALL are welcome to join us for this special potluck supper! Bring a framed photo of your child for the Photo Table.

Even if you haven't been to a meeting in years, it is always a treat to see old TCF friends! It can feel so grounding to be where everyone truly understands your loss. Old and new members can connect, share, and enjoy some camaraderie.

Our regular meetings are for bereaved parents, grandparents and siblings, but our annual potluck supper is a great time to bring significant others, extended family, or good friends!

Please RSVP to Isabel Phillips at: info@isabelphillips.com. Kindly indicate what you might like to bring and if you are available to help with set-up that afternoon at 5pm.

It is helpful to know how many people to expect for table setup, decorations, etc. Our TCF Chapter will provide the beverages and paper goods.

If you don't have time to prepare or purchase an item to bring, come anyway! There is always plenty of food, and we will feed you! The Parish Hall at St. Mary's has a full kitchen with an oven and microwave for heating or reheating food as needed.

Note: Because this is not a regular meeting, the start time and format are different, and we will begin at 6:30pm instead of 7:30pm.

Hoping to see you there!

Isabel Phillips and Peter Ramsey, Chapter Leaders
Central Middlesex TCF Chapter
