OPPORTUNITIES

U18 Volunteers Needed! We are looking for Sunday morning volunteers to help with the program downstairs, as well as female leaders for our Friday night senior youth program. If you’re able to assist with either of these, please connect with Pastor Amos.

We have a lovely new welcome centre thanks to the hard work of some volunteer handymen. We would like to see this space used on Sunday morning as a spot where newcomers can go to learn more about HMC, what we stand for, and what we have to offer. We want to see this station manned by some warm and friendly faces. Cindy Dietz will be championing this ministry, but is looking for some help. If you’d be willing to stand (or sit) at this desk before and after a Sunday service, please connect with Cindy, the church office, or Pastor Dave.

WORDS OF THANKS

Dorothy Schmitt would like to thank the pastors and congregation for making her 95th birthday such a special occasion .

CONGRATULATIONS

There will be a Come & Go to celebrate the birthdays of Larry (75) and Joan (80) Kreuger on Saturday, October 6 from 1-4 p.m. in Auditorium A/B. Best wishes only.

WELCOME TO THE TEAM! We’re happy to announce that Lucas Dietz is working as our new co-op student, shadowing Pastor Amos and contributing to the U18 ministry this semester.
