Announcements from The Elders Board

a. Please send your completed and signed nomination forms for the Nominating Committee to Pastor Marcus by today (Mar 13).

b. The Board of Elders encourages everyone to consider donating to the Alliance Canada for relief work among the refugees from Ukraine.

c. Registration for the March 27 Farewell Gathering for Pastor Nathan and Christy as well as the AGM will begin today until next Sunday (Mar. 20). Weather permitting, the Farewell Gathering will begin at 12:30 pm on the church lawn, and will include lunch boxes for registered attendees (by freewill offering). Attendees can bring their cards or love gifts to give to Pastor Nathan and Christy, and will have time to share words of encouragement to them. The AGM will be held afterward in the English Sanctuary at 2:00 pm. Out of an abundance of caution, attendees may need to show their vaccine card at the door if we have more than 60 people. Thank you for your understanding and readiness.
