​Clerk's Corner:
Ahh September...camps are shutting down and cottage beaches are quiet. While some things are slowing down, others are ramping up--school work, daily routines and, yes, church. As beautiful as worship services in our prayer garden were all summer long, session met on Sept. 8th and decided it was time to get back inside the church and resume worship services as close to pre-COVID as possible. That means the service will have music in various formats to facilitate the singing of hymns, responsive readings, and scripture read by elders. We will adhere to COVID protocols by hand sanitizing, wearing masks, and sitting in pews maintaining a distance of 2m between individuals not of the same household. Communion will once again be with bread and wine served by elders in a COVID safe manner.
Our next communion Sunday is Oct 3rd. We hope you plan to attend to partake of this sacrament with your church family. 
"Coffee hour" after the service has now morphed into FACE time, ( Fellowship And Cookies Everyone). Juice and cookies are served (using COVID protocols) in the Fellowship Hall. Its a nice way to meet and greet and spend time with others. We hope more of you will feel comfortable joining in on this social time. If you would like to host FACE time some week there will be a sign-up sheet attached to the fridge in the kitchen.
As we continue to live through this pandemic, let us do this with renewed vigour and energy. 
" I can do all this through Him who gives me strength" Phil 4.13 NIV
