Warren County Celebrates 200 Years

Learn about Warren County’s Bicentennial at the new website: http://warrenny200.org

On March 12, 1813, the legislators of the State of New York, recognizing the expanding settlements occurring from the banks of the Hudson, to the shores of beautiful Lake George, and well into our scenic Adirondack Mountains, signed into law a bill that would remove this area from its parent county, Washington. This new jurisdiction became known as Warren County and was named for Revolutionary War General Joseph Warren.

Where Do You Buy Stamps?


A postage paid order form to buy stamps by mail from the Huletts Post Office.

I’ve received a few emails from people wanting to help keep the Post Office open. One thing we can all do to support the Huletts Post Office (even if you are not in Huletts) is to buy stamps from our local Post Office. Ordering stamps by mail is a great way to support the Huletts Post Office. It’s free and incredibly easy. The order form comes in a return postage paid envelope and the stamps arrive at your door within a few days. It’s that simple and it helps. Everyone needs stamps, so give it a try.

Happy Easter

From King’s College Cambridge, The Kings College Choir:
Jesus Christ is Risen Today.

I hope Easter finds you and your family well. Hopefully everyone will be back in Huletts soon.

I have very sad news to report. Kerry McNelis (Kevin’s wife) passed away Saturday, March 23rd.

Kerry was a joy to all who knew her and will be missed by the entire Huletts community.

“May God support us all the day long, till the shades lengthen and the evening comes, and the busy world is hushed, and the fever of life is over, and our work is done. Then in His mercy may He give us a safe lodging, and a holy rest and peace at the last.”

2013 Palm Sunday


Entry Into Jerusalem, Pedro Orrente, 1620

Jesus proceeded on his journey up to Jerusalem.
As he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany
at the place called the Mount of Olives,
he sent two of his disciples.
He said, “Go into the village opposite you,
and as you enter it you will find a colt tethered
on which no one has ever sat.
Untie it and bring it here.
And if anyone should ask you,
‘Why are you untying it?’
you will answer,
‘The Master has need of it.’”
So those who had been sent went off
and found everything just as he had told them.
And as they were untying the colt, its owners said to them,
“Why are you untying this colt?”
They answered,
“The Master has need of it.”
So they brought it to Jesus,
threw their cloaks over the colt,
and helped Jesus to mount.
As he rode along,
the people were spreading their cloaks on the road;
and now as he was approaching the slope of the Mount of Olives,
the whole multitude of his disciples
began to praise God aloud with joy
for all the mighty deeds they had seen.
They proclaimed:
“Blessed is the king who comes
in the name of the Lord.
Peace in heaven
and glory in the highest.”
Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him,
“Teacher, rebuke your disciples.”
He said in reply,
“I tell you, if they keep silent,
the stones will cry out!”

Luke 19:28-40
