* Trinity’s Progressive Dinner
The Trinity Social Club hosts a fantastic event called a progressive dinner. This is a great evening of friendship, food and a great way to meet members of Trinity in small groups. Small groups gather for appetizers in one location, then you get an envelope revealing the location of your main course. Following the main course everyone gathers back here at Trinity for dessert. All are welcome! For more information please speak with the Sheridans or the Rozickis after church or call the church for their contact information. It is a fantastic evening that you will not want to miss! Deadline to sign up is November 12th.
* United Church Ebola Crisis Appeal
Donations are being collected to help ACT (Action by Churches Together) for its efforts to help contain the spread of the Ebola virus and also to the United Church’s Mission and Service partners in West Africa. Please be sure to note “Emergency Response—Ebola Crisis Relief” on the face of your cheque.
This weekend I, along with other youth leaders, will gather with 18 youth on a weekend retreat at Spirit Point. Throughout the weekend we will be exploring the theme of Living in Right Relations – with ourselves, our neighbours and our Earth. We look forward to sharing our stories with you when we return!
Fall Blessings,
