Say Welcome to Daena!


Hello Everyone!

 

I have officially started as the New CDM, Child Youth and Family Leader and I couldn't be more excited to meet with all of you.

 

My church email is: daena@norvalunited.ca 

 

Please reach out anytime to connect, introduce yourself, share ideas etc !

I plan to be in the church offices on Tuesdays, and Thursdays each week along with Youth activities on other days and of course on Sundays. 

 

Please come and have a look as well at the Youth Room at Norval on Sunday and say hi as we are revamping the Youth room a bit and would love to see what you think !

 

Blessings,

Daena 🙂

We’re excited to start up movie night again in September!

We’ll be showing the movie Mitchells vs Machines (2021). Pizza and snacks will be provided—

please let us know if you plan to attend so we can make sure we have enough for everyone.

Feel free to come cozy! Bring blankets, pillows, stuffed animals, wear PJ's, or whatever makes your family comfortable.

Love to Sing? Love Music? Come Make Some Music With Us!


Do you love to sing? Enjoy making music with others? Or maybe you’re simply curious about what it might be like to be part of a fun and welcoming musical group at Norval?


This fall, our Music Director, Alan Forde, is bringing together a new Praise and Music Group! The idea is simple: gather together, explore some fun music, enjoy singing with others, and perhaps even teach the congregation a new song or two along the way.


Interested? Come and see what it’s all about! Meet with Alan and others following the 10 a.m. worship service on Sunday, September 20th, to learn more and make some plans for the fall.


Whether you’ve been singing for years or simply love music and would like to give it a try, we’d love to have you join us. Everyone is welcome!


Questions? Please reach out to Alan at: fordelex300@yahoo.com

Norval's Display Cabinet

(in the Gathering space next to the fireplace) 


The top shelf is a permanent display of prayer squares, a prayer shawl (in memory of Beverley Wilson) and a lap blanket (which was given to and used by George Smith). We welcome requests and are happy to supply any of the above items. 


The middle shelf focuses on the life of the church. 

The display will be presented by church groups and will change monthly. The month of September is an informative display of the work of our pollinators. 


The bottom shelf will also change monthly to bring fun and interesting items from our archives. 

Please stop by and enjoy if you can. Also if you have ideas for the future or would like to loan a display piece please let me know.


Blessings
