Church Notes January, 2019!
Happy New Year to All! And especially we wish all the blessings of a bright new year to our Syrian family, Mohamad, Mariam, Tasneem and Khalil. The family are in Vancouver right now, having spent the holiday with family, and spending some time exploring their options as they launch into a new life in Canada. They have been gracious and grateful for all the effort our volunteers have put in to help them acclimatize in this new land. But in the end, they will do what they need to do to ensure a secure and prosperous future for their family. We’ll keep you posted.
Christmas Tea and Bake Sale, UCW was as usual, a huge success! Thanks so much to all who contributed baking and other support, and to all who took home that tableful of goodies! Hope you had a great Christmas.
Christmas Concert – all music service: This was also a very successful event with generous donations received for the Food Bank, First United in Vancouver, and the Mission Boat Society. Many thanks to the musicians who generously donated time and talent, and to Pete Stiles who looked after the donation table, and to all who contributed to our lovely lunch!
