MESSAGE FROM CHURCH COUNCIL​

Church Council has discussed and decided that, in light of the many illnesses circulating in our town, and for the care and safety of all, we will continue to only use every other seat in the sanctuary during worship. Please only sit in the untapped pews in order to do your little part to safely distance and to help protect yourself and others around you. We thank you in advance for your co-operation and kindness.

​A REMINDER

A reminder from Rev. Paula that the hospitals do not contact the minister if you or a loved one are an in-patient. Ensuring the minister knows someone is admitted and requests a visit, is the sole responsibility of the family.
