Trinity United Church North Bay

Hello Trinity Friends,
It is a busy weekend at Trinity. Tomorrow the UCW is hosting their annual Christmas Tea and Bazaar from 1 – 3. Come enjoy afternoon tea complete with fancy finger sandwiches, delicious treats and coffee or tea served in beautiful formal tea cups. $10 per person. While you are there come browse the craft and snack tables to get a head start on your Christmas shopping!
 
On Sunday, during our morning worship, we will be holding a Remembrance Service. Our piper is Rob Sanders and our trumpet is Marcel MacDonald. After the service, plan to come back to enjoy the JOY Band’s “Musical Memories of the War Years’ concert. The sing-a-long starts at 1:30 followed by the concert at 2 pm. Proceeds will go towards the Nipissing Serenity Hospice (in honour of Cindy Brownlee).
 
The Sunday School will begin rehearsing for the Christmas Pageant beginning this Sunday. If your child would like to participate but will not be at church on Sunday, please be in touch with Lisa asap.
 
What’s happening next week at TRINITY? Glad you asked – please keep reading!

Speaking of the Santa Claus Parade (Sunday November 16) – did you know that the parade passes right by our Ferguson street entrance?
