KEEPING YOU IN THE LOOP

Please join with us every Monday to pray. Set your alarms to 5:14 a.m. or p.m. each Monday and let’s come together to pray for our church, our vision, and our leadership.

We have a Podcast! If you like catching up on sermons you’ve missed but don’t want to do that on YouTube, you can now listen to our podcast. Visit the podcast link on our website, or download the free Mixcloud app to your iPhone or Android device and search HMCpodcast.

Warming Centre. Please continue to pray for our HMC Warming Centre which will be open every Thursday from noon to 2 p.m. Pray for our visitors and volunteers as we work together to build a welcoming place full of trust and hope. Here are some other ways that you can help: 1) Sign up at the Welcome Centre to volunteer your time on Thursdays. 2) Sign up to bring a pot of soup for our guests. 3) Donate nonperishable food items as well as hats, mitts, and socks for our HMC Pantry. Thank you for helping to show care, compassion, and love to others in our community!

Join the HMC Bible Book Club! In an effort to encourage daily interaction with the scriptures we’re started a Facebook group where we hope you will go to find motivation to do daily devotions, as well as opportunity to contribute to discussions about what you’re currently reading, and what has challenged you. Pastor Dave has committed to post to this group at least once a week and some good discussion is already happening. Please consider joining! Go to https://www.facebook.com/groups/HMCBBC/ to join. If you need a little help getting started, some guides are available in the foyer that will direct your reading.

WORDS OF THANKS

Thank you to everyone who took the time to thoughtfully fill out the surveys that were handed out last month. Pastor Dave is working through all the responses and will be reporting back on the results in the future.
