Gala Dinner Tonight

There is a Gala Dinner at 5pm in support of the Thursday Night Supper and Social tonight at St Andrew’s everything has been prepared. While we do not want anyone to take any risks to get there, if you can come, you will definitely be given a wonderful meal.

Something for our children this summer!

 

We are excited to have the staff of Camp Cairn back this summer.  This is a great week for our children.  Everyone is welcome to participate: friends, neighbours, grandchildren.  We will also need some adult helpers.  If you can help out, please speak with Joni.

A special Sunday service!

Sunday is going to be extra special! We have two wonderful celebrations. We will be celebrating the Sacrament of Baptism, so please help us support this beautiful family. And then we will be celebrating a 90th birthday. Come out and join us for worship and celebration at 10:00 am.

Holy Week Services

Our Holy Week Services will begin with Palm Sunday.

Please join us.

Why you definitely don't want to forget to set your clocks forward

Okay, we don't mean to alarm you, but there is a chance that you might just sleep in this Sunday. That is because Sunday the 11th is the first day of Daylight Savings time in 2018. If you don't adjust your clocks, your alarm might not go off and might just not make it to church at St. Andrew's Hespeler and believe us, you won't want to miss it. Why? Well...

• It is the fourth Sunday in Lent and we will continue our journey towards the wonders and marvels of Easter. We continue to reflect on the teaching of A Catechism for Today which turns, this week, towards the all-important idea of a covenant.
• People have been working on some incredible music for this service including
• A beautiful arrangement of Pachelbel's Canon by the Adult choir accompanied by Zoé McAndless on the violin
• A duet by Heather & Corey
• A duet (The old Rugged Cross) by Ray & Bob
• The sermon will focus on the meaning and application of covenant to our Christian lives:

O give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever!

A month to go ... and off to Malawi

In Malawi there is not much hope. There is disease, corruption and famine; no education and misery ride tall among the residents there. But there is a compassionate God that has given us plenty and with this plenty we can share and bring a better way of life to the Malawian people. Please consider those who go without their entire lives and find out more about this mission; God’s mission given to us. For more information go to: http://presbyterian.ca/pwsd/

Going to Malawi

In Canada we take many things for granted: warm homes that shelter us from the elements, easily accessible food and clean water, a great education system and health care that looks after our needs. But in some places in the world like Malawi, there is barely any access to clean water; let alone the other necessities that are needed to survive and perpetuate their culture. We can make a difference!  In April, 2 or our members are taking part in a PWS&D trip to Malawi.  We look forward to hearing about how our donations to PWS&D are making a difference.
