October 19th, Church News

Time, family, money, love, neighbours and strangers.  All of these things sometimes seem to slip away, grow up, be forgotten, or never heard from.  All of these things are important to God.

As we talk about Family Matters over the next few Sundays, we will continue to explore these ideas from the viewpoint of God, through the Bible.

This Sunday, we invite you to 'be our guest' as we talk about 'welcoming guests'.  What does the Bible say about welcoming strangers?  Welcoming neighbours?  About our homes, in this world?

Please also consider our church mission trip to Cuba this coming winter.  we are looking at a 7 day trip, to serve and learn from our fellow churches in Cuba, with a timeframe of late February/early March.  If this interests you, please let us know.

Also, Consider coming to the Empower 11' weekend training.  Find all the information on the newsletter below.  The dates are November 4th and 5th, and will be a great resource to help you understand the growing Muslim population of Saskatoon (and Canada).

Have a wonderful week and see you Sunday at 10:30 (9:30 for Adult Sunday School :)

What a September this has been!  Unbelievable weather, sunshine and wind!

This have also been blowing through the church very quickly, from our Missions Sunday on the 18th, to the various fall activities we have been moving in overdrive around here.

This coming Sunday, October 2nd, we will be talking about the theme "Can I make a difference in my life?"  Can we?  Can we truly change our lives, our paths, our futures?  I believe that the answer is yes and no :)  There are two sides to the question, and yet one answer.  Come on out Sunday at 10:30am to explore this with us through the lens of the Bible.

Please also consider checking out our 'Comfort Makers' on Wednesday nights at 7:00pm at the church.  They take used materials, fabrics, sheets, linens (even a donated Wedding dress once!), and repurpose them into amazing quilts and blankets --- THEN GIVE THEM AWAY!  They have are distributed through various agencies locally and even overseas, to help people stay warm, and 'comfortable' in our cold days and nights.  You don't even need to know how to quilt, it you can operate a pair of scissors, you will fit right in!

También consideramos nuestro servicio en español, el Pastor Miguel Robles,lleva un buen grupo de varios países de español en un tiempo increíble de culto y la enseñanza domingos al las 3:00 pm.  

Let us know if you have any questions --- and May God Bless you today.

Fall Plans

What a great summer it has been!  It's shocking to think that in 6 days the kids start back at school, labour day weekend is just around the corner and halloween costumes will be hung up on store shelves within weeks!

I just want to mention a few things we are planning for this fall.

Our Kids Church program will begin again on September 11th, come and reconnect with the friends and family and let your kids experience some great teaching geared just for them!

A joint kick off Sunday September 18th, 10:30 am with our Spanish service joining us, a special quest speaker, John Hawbaker from our World Missions office in Pennsylvania, and a bbq lunch to follow!

We are also making plans for many different fall activities.

The Comfort Makers, our quilting group is open to anyone and they start again on September 7th at 7pm.  If you're interested in re-purposing all sorts of material to GIVE away to to those in need - this group is for you!

We are also putting together plans for another Financial Peace University Course.  This will be our fifth time running the program, please check out the website and contact us if you have any questions.  Financial Peace is a start to finish financial course.  From how to get out of debt, savings, mortgages and retirement - it is an amazing course.  We are not yet listed on their website as our start date has not yet been confirmed, but email us and we will make sure you are kept up to date!

We are also looking forward to opening up our door for the Nurturing with Rhymes program.  This will start in early September and is open to everyone!  Check the link for further information.

These are just a few of the things to come this fall - but thought I let you know what to start looking forward to here Massey Place Community Church.
