Hello Everyone!
Looks like the saying, "April showers bring May flowers" should be April showers bring April flowers! Daffodils and tulips are everywhere ! And the grass is now so green! All those green thumbs are getting ready! (We have bags of dirt arriving shortly for that garden work!)
Please continue to pray for Rev. Sean Foster, Bonnie, and the kids as Sean and the family are dealing with the impact of ALS.
NOTE: Worship Sunday, April 28th @ 10:00am. We plan on worshipping at Knox Oakville as a congregation on. Please let Debbie know if you will need a ride. We are also looking to livestream some of Knox's services .
Knox is undergoing a re-construction project and they have asked to use some of our church's space during the work on their building. In order to facilitate booking of space, we have set up a calendar on Knox's website. Please ask Cheri to book a room if you need to have a meeting at Hopedale.
A High Tea Party is being held at Clarkson on Saturday, April 27th at 1 pm as a fundraiser for Arise Ministries, which helps those who are involved in the sex trade reclaim their lives through hope, love, and justice. The cost is $35, and you can obtain tickets via office@clarksonpc.com. This sounds like a fun event!!!
Once again, we are raising funds for Kerr Street Mission to send a child to Summer Camp. For, $250, we can send one child to camp for one week this summer. See Rose, to contribute or to find out more information.
