A Message From Chris Paxton

News about a former long-time member, Mark Pierce. He died last January of Leukemia. There will be a celebration of like for him on May 18th at the Port Dalhousie Legion from 1pm to 3pm. The family asked me to pass the news on to any who knew him and would want to know.

Ants In The Kitchen

Ants in the kitchen

A message from the Kitchen

It is springtime and they are beginning to appear again. Recently, ants have been seen in the kitchen. Marilyn found a couple between the bread-and-butter plates
last week. Jeanette sprayed around the kitchen sink because there were many ants running around.

The sugar bowl used for coffee hour must be emptied back into the large canister, not left in the sugar bowl on the shelf in the cupboard. This morning Jean found chicken bones sitting in the sink which ia a real drawing card for ants. Please everyone, due diligence is required if we are to avoid a major ant problem.
Thank You

Thanks

Thankyou

Please take a moment this week to notice and appreciate our freshly steam cleaned carpets and thank you to the generous donor who covered the cost! And to everyone who helped take all the chairs and other furniture out of the Church and then replaced it all after the cleaning.

Thanks

ThankYou spray

We have 2 fabulous new spotlights which light up the space in front of the altar and in front of the altar rail so much better. Thank you, Brian, for realizing we needed them and your generosity in finding them, ordering them, covering the cost and installing them. For those watching from home we especially hope it helps with the live stream!

Lenten Lunch

Soup

Thank you from Kelly to everyone who prepared soup and chili for the Lenten Lunch. Thank you also to those who came to enjoy the lunch and extra special thanks to those that helped set up and tear down. Between our two lunches we raised over $1,400.00 for PWRDF.

Crockpots

Dorothy Hulan found the wrong insert in her crockpot after Sunday. If you have a black oval insert in your crockpot that is newer looking then it should be, please return it to the church. Yours is waiting for you in the kitchen. Also there are more crockpots in the kitchen to be picked up as well.
