On February 4th, after the service, their will be a short Congregational Meeting concerning our new proposed constitution and the subject of incorporation.
Please make every effort to stay and attend and take home one copy of the constitution (per family).
If you wear glasses, you probably have pairs of old glasses hanging around in a draw somewhere in your home. How would you like to help somebody else see? Jonathan Tabije will be collecting your old glasses to take back with him to the Philippines to share with those who can’t afford glasses there. You could give someone a new perspective, literally! More information to come, meanwhile try and remember where you left those old glasses!
We have put a lot of work into our Constitution and there is light at the end of the tunnel. We are very close to handing our first draft to the Board. Our next Constitution Planning Committee Meeting will be Sunday November 26, at 1:00 pm.
This Wednesday (April 12) our Bible Study Group (and whoever else wants to come) will be going to see “The Case for Christ” movie. The buzz is good, and for those who have read many of Lee Strobel’s books and who know his story, this should be a “must-see” movie. Come for a fun night and at meet us at the movies!

Sunday September 25th we will be having our third “Great Lakes Sunday”. Great Lakes College is an International Preparatory School with students from all over the world. The purpose of Great Lakes Sunday is to welcome our international students and invite them into our community and fellowship. As a local congregation made up of people from all over the world, we know what it feels like to move to Canada, so let’s give them a warm welcome and some warm food as well as we will be also having a potluck!
