Beginning immediately, the Church at the Centre is launching ARC (Asset Reallocation Coordination) under the able direction of Lila Adamec (905) 472-1341.
Lila is gathering and reallocating assets NOW.
If you want to donate to relief funds for disasters anywhere in the world (for example, Hurricane Katrina, or the tragic events in Beslan, Chechnya), consider giving to The Sharing Way. They have maximum impact in responding to human need by working through Baptist World Aid and local partners in the affected area who are familiar with the situation “on the ground.” Just designate on your cheque the situation you want your donation to go to, and make it payable to The Sharing Way, 7185 Millcreek Drive, Mississauga, Ontario L5N 5R4.
Audio CD Ministry for shut-ins and others who are unable to attend our Sunday morning services is in operation and growing. Would you like to be included as either a recipient or a copier/deliverer? Please contact Mel or your deacon.
Prayer and Share Time, Meets at Linda Moor's and Joan Platt's on alternate Wednesdays.
Young @ Heart meets at Fallingbrook Presbyterian.
Any Prayer requests, call Rose at (416) 267-5987 to start the chain reaction.
