St. Andrew's Sunday School
Sunday, October 5
Dear St. Andrew's Friends,
World communion is one of my favourite Sundays of the year. It reminds us of how we are all connected in Christ. We celebrate the sacrament in different ways, in different places and it speaks to each of us differently. Yet we all remember the same radical love of Jesus and are transformed by it. We will celebrate at St. Andrew's this Sunday by sitting together as a Sunday School group and eating fresh bread!
Thanks to Josh, Miriam, Aisling, Heather and Stacey for leading Church School last week.
First Sunday youth group takes place after worship this week. We'll meet downstairs in the Flames Sunday School room for lunch and activities finishing early at 1pm.
This Sunday we also have the walk for the food centre after worship. You can still join in this important fund raiser or donate here:https://www.canadahelps.org/en/charities/centretown-churches-social-action-committee/p2p/Walk-2025/team/st-andrews-striders#
Coming up:
It's October which means the Christmas Eve Pageant rehearsals begin next month after worship! If you haven't already indicated your interest in being part of the pageant this year (either to me or Laurie our CE admin) please do so in the next week or so. There are speaking and non-speaking roles and lots of help is needed behind the scenes. Let us know if you'd like to be part of this special part of the church year.
Oct. 26- church potluck- bring a dish to share and stay to hear about the book 'Life After Doom'
Nov. 7- PA Day Camp - This is for OCDSB and OCSB school boards
May you sense Christ's peace this weekend and remember you are an important part of his holy community.
Rev. Heather Paton
