SUNDAY SERVICE

The love that is God flows through us. We feel it in prayer, praise, and fellowship. We receive it in the sacrament of holy communion. We channel it in our intentions and actions. Three wonderful things for us this Sunday:

Worship

Communion

The Affirming Vote

Be sure to look in your inbox for the other communication from Saint Andrew's today. It has helpful information about the affirming process and the motion for Sunday's vote.

Thank you to Rev. Shaun Fryday and Patrice Neves for their leadership. Thank you to our volunteers for their commitment, presence, and good - good! - works.

UCW SOUP CHALLENGE

What: St. Andrew’s UCW challenges you to make a donation to the “School Breakfast Program” at Joseph Howe Elementary School.

Where: From your very own home.

When: The entire month of November.

How: Everytime you have a bowl of soup in November (or if soup’s not your thing, your favourite meal or treat) .... toss a loonie, toonie (or more) in a jar.

Why: Help give hungry kids at Joseph Howe Elementary a really great start to their day. Last year we donated $1918.00 to this very worthwhile program, let’s do it again!

Our challenge to you - Eat and Donate for the month of November - make a difference right in your own community!

BRUNSWICK STREET MISSION

The rising cost of groceries and essentials has increased the amount of food given out from the various food banks and other places serving people in need.

Therefore, Brunswick Street mission is experiencing a decrease in the amount of food delivered from Feed Nova Scotia each week.

As a result, their shelves are empty, and clients are leaving with fewer groceries.

The list below would meet their need.

Donation baskets will be by the entry door or near coffee table at the back of the church sanctuary . Another one is also placed near the Coburg street door.
