Hi Church Family!
This week's Sunday service will be a special graduation celebration, with the theme of "levelling up" in our spiritual lives. Our moderator John Neufeld will be preaching.
Early risers are welcome at 9:30am for a coffee and fellowship time in room 14 or the chapel.
Wanted - VPU operator
Do you know a lot of worship songs? Can you stay focused and click a mouse? Are you familiar with ProPresenter or are you willing to learn? Are you willing to volunteer on Sunday mornings? If you are interested please talk to Jeremy Penner and he will see if you are a good fit.
IMPORTANT UPDATE - EXCITING CHANGES ARE CONTINUING :-)
Due to our foyer renovations most of the foyer will be blocked off, so everyone is strongly encouraged to use our south doors for entry / exit. You can hang your jackets in the hallway with the mailboxes, or use the racks downstairs.
If you have mobility issues you are still welcome to use the main doors.
Since there is worship practice and prayer happening in the sanctuary until 9:45am, the doors to the sanctuary will remain closed until then. We kindly ask that movement through the sanctuary be kept to a minimum until 9:45am.

Praise Wall
Our foyer is being renovated because of ceiling damage, and it's the perfect opportunity to continue updating this area into an even more relational space! Once the old tiles came down, many decisions had to be made based on what was found under them, and much work still has to be done.
While that ongoing work happens, we have a temporary praise wall up, where anyone can write down praise items and hang them up! We hope you will check it out and be encouraged by what others have shared.
