Hello everyone,
Welcome to the month of October!!
I’ve always loved the month of October…it’s the month I was born in and it’s the month that Cheryl and I decided to get married.
October has always been a favorite as the leaves on the tree’s begin to change and we celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday.
We have so much to be thankful for don’t we?
Would you remember to bring some non-perishable food items for the Thanksgiving display that John/Lore Reemeyer are putting together for Sunday October 13th? All of the collected food items will be donated to the Cyrus Centre and Joshua House.
This Sunday, we will also be celebrating our love to Christ through communion. The first Sunday of the month is set apart as a reminder of Christ’s great love and sacrifice on the cross!!
We will also be concluding our fall vision series, “The Five (5) Most Important Things We Do at Alderbrook Church…and Why? ”
This Sunday we are going to talk about global missions. I’ve said it many times about our church…”I love that you love to do Missions!!”
You will hear some great updates/reports from the missions projects we support, as well as hear about some upcoming trips that are available.
One last item: it’s our AGM (Annual General Meeting) this Sunday right after church for our members (and everyone who calls ACC their church home).
It will be a brief meeting and there will be a pizza lunch and childcare for the kids.
Looking forward to seeing you on Sunday!
Pastor Glenn and Cheryl
