Greetings Friends,
This week 53 grade three students from Kuper Academy came upon Briarwood with a wonderful flurry of questions, ideas, singing and discussion about what a Christian church is all about. Thank you to Susan D. for including Briarwood in the classes’ religious destinations field-trip and to Danielle Pierre for her Bible Quiz contribution.
As we speak, about 30 staff and volunteers from Tyndale St. Georges Community Center are here at Briarwood, using the church for a retreat.
This Sunday we look at forgiveness and reconciliation in the story of Jacob and Esau (Genesis 33), with a Call to Remembrance at 10 a.m.. Nursery and Kids’ Faith Program at 10 a.m. (organ) and 11:30 a.m. (worship bands).
Please remember in prayer:
the Youth Group, on a “Mall Hunt” and food court devotions tonight at Fairview;
the Advent Children’s Choir practice 11:05 a.m. in the West Room on Sunday;
the Small Group study next Wednesday at the Heusers’, and C&C on Thursday at Jenn V.’s.
Next Sunday Nov. 18th: Coats for Kids. As possible, please bring a coat, scarf, toque or boots for children at Verdun Elementary School. Both services.
Grace and Peace,
Greg
