Amen.

Beacon 2025
Wonder what happened to the strategic plan we were working on last year? It's been on hold, but it hasn't been forgotten! Rev. Peters and the planning team met on September 20 to find out about the plan and to reactivate the work. On October 23, during our 10:30 service the committee will present the findings and start the work, with your help and God's guidance, as we set a beacon for our parish. Don't miss this important presentation!
Youth Group
Youth ages 12-16 are invited to join us on Friday October 28th from 7:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. in the parish hall for a evening of fun. We hope to make this a monthly event and will be seeking ideas from our youth for each event.
Interested people please contact Rev. Jolene or Shauna Wells.

Sound Room Operators
Vestry is currently in the process of initiating maintenance and upgrades to the church’s sound equipment. This will likely involve the purchase of additional equipment, speakers, and upgrades to our hearing assist sets.
This work will also necessitate further training for our current sound room operators and any other parishioners who have an interest in and could help with this important component of our worship.
We hope to have 6 to 8 trained operators available in future. Our sound room will then be managed exclusively by these trained personnel.
If any parishioner has an interest in receiving this sound room training, you are asked to contact Bob Dawe (834-2890) Chair of Property, or Reverend Peters (834-2336) by Monday, October 17, 2016 so that time and dates for training with a qualified technician can be arranged.
Thank you for your assistance in this matter.
Altar Guild Meeting
The next scheduled meeting for the Altar is Sunday, October 23rd @ 9:30 a.m. The meeting will take place in the hall and morning coffee will be served. Rev. Jolene will be joining us and we plan to discuss the Altar Guild’s role in the upcoming Fall Fair and preparation for the Church liturgies for the next two months. Please make every effort to attend.
