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’ve 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.

PRAYER REQUESTS

Please pray for Chuck Fletcher who is recovering from hip surgery. Pray for rest and healing.

We are hiring a new part-time pastor. You can visit our website to see the posting. If you know someone who might be a good fit for this position, be sure to share it with them. Please be praying for the team responsible for going through applications. Pray for wisdom and discernment as they listen to God’s direction.
