A group of curious parishioners is meeting for the next six weeks beginning September 4th to read, reflect and discuss the Letter of James with the goal of learning how to be truly wise by living with genuine faith as taught by Jesus. The Bible Study group will continue to meet in person at St Georges until October 9th. They meet Friday's at 2pm. Everyone is welcome to any or all of the sessions.
Services are held in partnership with Christ Church, Roches Point usually on the second Monday of the month at 10:00 am. Volunteers welcome. Contact Canon David Neelands for details.
Outreach Focus
The Season of Creation is the focus of outreach from September 1 until Thanksgiving. Prayerfully consider donating your time or treasure to charities that support environmental causes. Alongside Hope is a national Anglican charity that you might consider.
Orange Shirt Day is September 27th. Please pray for our Indigenous people who have been and continue to be impacted by the horrors of the Indian Residential and Day Schools and other Church-run institutions. This is a day of solemn observation. Pray for healing and true reconcilation.
Why you should participate in PAR (pre-authorized remittance).
Convenience. If you already have automatic payments from your account to an insurance company, mortgage or utility, then you understand the principle of PAR. Your offering is received by the parish automatically every month. You choose the amount which can be changed with a written request.
Continual support. When you are away or miss a Sunday your support of outreach ministries and programs continues. The parish benefits from a regular, dependable flow of contributions.
To register for PAR and for further information contact Debra Harpley at deb@harpley.ca or leave a message at the church.
Prayer Chain
The parish has operated a confidential prayer chain for over 30 years.
New members are always welcome. Screening in Faith required. Please speak to Peggy Kernohan if interested.
Prayer Shawl Ministry
