Thank You to everyone who helped in anyway. Team work! We raised $1,368 and possibly more as a few people are trying to take some items and list them on Marketplace & Kijiji and are also taking some items to resellers who might purchase a few items. We will update as things progress.

May/June/July Forward Day by day Books are in. A $2 donation to help offset the costs would be appreciated. They are on the Table near the Music Ministry Bulletin Board. If you have never had a chance to get one of these books they are lovely. Rev. Sheila introduced them to me, and I use them daily.

Dear Church Family,

I was touched to feel your support on my Confirmation Day! Thank you so much. The unexpected gift of the beautiful cross, the lovely card and all the well wishes meant a lot to me. I have already planned where I am going to hang the cross. A special big “Thank You” to Rev. Sheila for meeting with me and helping me prepare for Confirmation. And thank you to Rev. Sheila and Sandra for being part of the service in Hamilton. It was special to have them involved.

I am so grateful to be part of such a loving and caring church family.
Love
Grace Lombarczki
