Midweek on Wednesday, April 17th

PPM Sunday

Coming Sunday is PPM Sunday when you worship our great God with our preschool children. Please welcome our precious children and their families.

Photo Contest

The first annual photo contest is open. Please email your flower photo to pastor Je to enter. It does not have to be a recent photo. Five or more years or old photo is just fine. There are only two rules that it has to be a flower photo, and that is was taken by you.

Sunday Hymns

There will be more songs and music than our regular Sunday morning worship services. The three regular hymns are listed below. Let other songs surprise you on Sunday.

Sunday Scriptures and Sermon Title

Notes from PPM

We are excited to worship with you this coming Sunday. Please join us following the service for cookies in the fellowship hall. Continue to pray for all our staff and children as these last few weeks of school are sometimes the most difficult and we transition to our summer program.—PPM Director Lori Rowe

PCUSA Special Offering: Pentecost

After the Easter Sunday through Pentecost Sunday, the PCUSA is collecting the Special Offering of Pentecost. A gift to the Pentecost Offering helps the church encourage, develop, and support its young people, and also address the needs of at-risk children. 40% of the Pentecost offering can be retained at our congregation to make an impact in the lives of young people within our own community. The remaining 60% is used to support children-at-risk, youth, and young adults through ministries of the Presbyterian Mission Agency. You can mark your cheque or offering envelope as “Pentecost.”

Pack a Baby Pack: Sat, Apr. 27th

We are excited to announce that we will be delivering baby packs to expecting mothers in Malawi. These packs contain essential hygienic supplies, which are crucial for clean and healthy baby deliveries. Unfortunately, due to the lack of these items, many newborn babies and mothers face serious risks.

Coming Sunday is the last time you can donate necessary items. or financial gifts (“Baby Pack” on the memo line of your cheque).

The sign-up sheet is posted on the bulletin board outside the church office for those who will come to the packing event (sign up by coming Sunday). The sign-up sheet on the refreshment table in the back of the sanctuary is for the needed items.

Saturday Bible Study

Last Saturday, we watched the movie “Mission.” Because the movie was too long, we did not have a chance to discuss afterwards. The discussion will be coming Saturday.

Voice Actor Needed

If you want to help dramatising the Scripture Reading, talk to Neal on Sunday morning.

Wanna Be a Visit Team?

The sign-up sheet for the next week is blank and empty. If you want to help pastor Je visiting our home-bound members, please sign up on the bulletin board outside the church office.

Prayer Request?

If you have a prayer request, please contact Phyllis Duff at raduff2@att.net.

Got News?

Do you have something you wish to share with the church family? Sharing good news will double it. Sharing sad news will halve it. Is your child or grandchild excellent? You can boast about them. Contact pastor Je if you want your story on the weekly Midweek or monthly Newsletter.

101: Thou Shalt Doubt (Sunday, June 12th, 2022)

OT Lesson: Judges 6:33-40 (CEB) Some time later, all the Midianites, Amalekites, and other easterners joined together, came over, and set up camp in the Jezreel Valley. Then the Lord’s spirit came over Gideon, and he sounded the horn and summoned the Abiezrites to follow him. He sent messengers into all of Manasseh, and they were also summoned to follow him. Then he sent messengers into Asher, Zebulun, and Naphtali too, and they marched up to meet them. But then Gideon said to God, “To see if you really intend to rescue Israel through me as you have declared, I’m now putting a wool fleece on the threshing floor. If there is dew only on the fleece but all the ground is dry, then I’ll know that you are going to rescue Israel through me, as you have declared.” And that is what happened. When he got up early the next morning and squeezed the fleece, he wrung out enough dew from the fleece to fill a bowl with water. Then Gideon said to God, “Don’t be angry with me, but let me speak j...

Walk with Me

OT Lesson: Genesis 17:1-7, 15-16 (CEB) When Abram was 99 years old, the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am El Shaddai. Walk with Me and be trustworthy. I will make a covenant between Us and I will give you many, many descendants.” Abram fell on his face, and God said to him, “But Me, My covenant is with you; you will be the ancestor of many nations. And because I have made you the ancestor of many nations, your name will no longer be Abram but Abraham. I will make you very fertile. I will produce nations from you, and kings will come from you. I will set up My covenant with you and your descendants after you in every generation as an enduring covenant. I will be your God and your descendants’ God after you. God said to Abraham, “As for your wife Sarai, you will no longer call her Sarai. Her name will now be Sarah. I will bless her and even give you a son from her. I will bless her so that she will become nations, and kings of peoples will come from her.” NT Lesson: Roman...

God Doesn't Care

OT Lesson: Isaiah 25:6-9 (CEB) On this mountain, the Lord of heavenly forces will prepare for all peoples a rich feast, a feast of choice wines, of select foods rich in flavour, of choice wines well refined. He will swallow up on this mountain the veil that is veiling all peoples, the shroud enshrouding all nations. He will swallow up death forever. The Lord God will wipe tears from every face; He will remove His people’s disgrace from off the whole earth, for the Lord has spoken. They will say on that day, “Look! This is our God, for whom we have waited— and He has saved us! This is the Lord, for whom we have waited; let’s be glad and rejoice in His salvation!” NT Lesson: Mark 16:1-8 (NRSV) When the sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint Him. And very early on the first day of the week, when the sun had risen, they went to the tomb. They had been saying to one another,  ...
