Just a reminder that Serve Day is this Sunday. Instead of attending a church service at Mountain Park School, we’ll provide service to our neighbors. Please be praying for all of the churches and their people that are participating. Pray, too, for the people that will be served throughout the day, that God will speak to their hearts as His people meet some of their physical needs.
If you haven’t signed up for a project yet, please do so as soon as possible. Go to serveday.ca to find a list of the projects and to sign up. Once you have signed up for a project, the group leader will contact you with specific information - address, time, etc. - about your project.
Not sure what to do? Two projects in our area in need of volunteers. The first is listed as “Landscaping and painting a fence” in Douglas dale/Douglas glen. The second is listed as “Weeding yard and staining fence & deck in Cranston.” Both could be family friendly and build some great connections within our area. If we do not have volunteers for these projects, it is likely that they will have to be cancelled. Please consider being a part of blessing the lives of these two families.
You may have noticed when you signed up that there is a BBQ and rally for all participants on Sunday night at Bonavista Evangelical Missionary Church, 1509 Lake Ontario Drive. The BBQ will begin at 4:30 pm. Make sure you make note of your attendance when you sign up for your projects so the organizers can have an indication of numbers as they prepare. Donations will be accepted to cover the cost of food. Please bring your lawn chairs as we are expecting a full house!
It would be great for us to share our experiences at Journey. Please take your cameras and take some pictures during the day. You can send them to stacey@journeychurch.ca following the weekend.
