Choir Notes
Since we
don't have a choir at this time. Some of us plan to sing for you during
the Advent Season.
We are
trying to help people realize that the Lord is real, and He loves
everyone. A choir's purpse is more than just creating beautiful music.
It has a transforming and inspiring mission - to bring people together
through singing and praising our Lord, and is a missionary tool of the
Church. Why don't you condsider joining us in the adventure!
Please

The
members of the congregation take
turns hosting the "Fellowship Hour" after worship each Sunday. All are
invited and welcome to share in the beverages, snacks and baking
provided. The free-will offerings received go to support the ministries
of the congregation. This is a great opportunity to meet others, get to
know our guests and visitors, and each other. It is a time to share
each others joys and sorrows, celebrations and burdens, and strengthen
the bonds of friendship and caring.
Join us after
worship in the hall
downstairs for mutual conversation
and caring.
Prayers
We remember in
prayer the sick, suffering and shut-in members and friends of our
congregation. Those for whom we pray each Sunday during worship and
others. We give thanks to the Lord for the recovery of those who were
sick and rejoice knowing them well again. Please notify our Pastoral
Care Minister, Dorothy Chu, if you have any concern or personal needs
asking for intercessional prayer. 604.261.2442

The website of Canadian Lutheran
World Relief has been updated to give you more support and information
for the kits and quilts you send us as part of the We Care program. Now
when you visit www.clwr.org/WeCare,
you
can
find
the
following: A simple How-to guide for assembling and
shipping your own We Care kits and quilts. A new shipping form
for
you to attach to every shipment, which will greatly help our warehouse
staff. A table of information that shows you what we have shipped since
the year 2000. Thank you for continuing to support this important part
of our work. Your donated kits and quilts make a real difference in the
lives of others.
Lutherans believe God has blessed us
richly. Some have been blessed with assets that have accumulated in
excess of our daily needs. A planned gift usually comes from
these assets, although you do not need to be wealthy to make a planned
gift. You, as the donor or giver of the gift, decide: What your gift
will be, when it goes into effect, who will benefit from it and how it
will be managed. Careful planning also allows you to maximize the tax
benefits of charitable giving. Gifts can be in cash, investments, real
estate, in your will, in life insurance, or a gift annuity providing
you with a guaranteed income for life.
For more information call toll-free to 1-888-308-9461, fax 905 634-2428
or email lpg@worldchat.com. A
brochure on “Planned Gifts” is available from the church office. Thank
you, for your gifts to the church to further its mission and ministries.
