June 29, 2014 - Pentecost 3 and Canada Day


Greetings,
I will be away for the next two Sundays.  As many of you already know, Paul and I with four other teenage boys are going to Sonora, California for a youth leadership conference/camp.  So worship will be led by Anne Dingwell and Edina Tillotson, our very own Licenced Lay Worship Leaders.

Sunday Worship
This Sunday, Anne and Edina will be thinking about the approaching Canada Day.  The Time for All Ages is “What is Canada Day?”

The Scripture readings are Psalm 13 and Matthew 25: 31-41.  The Sermon is titled: “Friends from Far and Wide”

Children in Church
Although there is no Sunday School Program during the summer, we do hope that you and your children still find the time to join us for worship on Sundays.  We will try to make the summer Services as “all age friendly” as possible.  But as a minister and father, I know that all people (and this includes adults and children) are different and we won’t hit the mark with everyone all the time.  For the kids who may become a bit bored or restless, we have activity packs available (ask a greeter.) These packs can be explored either in the sanctuary or in the lounge.  I am sorry we don’t have activity packs for the adults, maybe you can share with one of the children.

Garage Sale
The Garage Sale has been postponed until the fall.

Spirit West Prayer Chain
Spirit West has a Prayer Chain, a group of people who have committed to continue our prayers of concern from Sunday through the week.  To be part of this ministry, email your request to spiritwest.prayerchain@gmail.com .  You may also email a request for prayer to the same email address.  If you would prefer to talk to someone, you can call Marian T. at 780-487-2851 or Bonnie C. at 780-444-2230.
