The Big Story

Monday, January 23rd, 2012

Saturday, February 25th, Dr. Stephen Dempster, professor at Crandall University in Moncton, NB will be speaking at Charlottetown Community Church, 420 University Ave. D.A. Carson said, “Dempster’s reading of the story line of the Old Testament is fresh, provocative, helpful–and doubtless will prove to be the stuff of many sermons and lectures. His closing chapter points to some of the links that bind the Old and New Testaments together, an obviously urgent goal for the Christian preacher and teacher.” This evening could open your eyes to the Big Story of the Old Testament in a way that will change your view of the text, our mission and where we are in the story we find ourselves in. Cost is $5 at the door. Saturday, February 25th, 7 p.m. – 9:30 p.m. Lecture with Q&A to follow.

Comfort Cart Mission

Wednesday, June 1st, 2011

Michelle B works at a nursing home. On our Facebook site she’s organized a mission that many of us have jumped in on! Here’s the info and your invitation to take part:

Some nursing homes have a “comfort cart” filled with things for the family/resident to use during the dying process. For example: perhaps a Bible, some relaxation CDs, some nice stationary for journaling, books with short/inspirational stories (e.g. Chicken Soup for the …) The unit I work on doesn’t have one of these carts. I am thinking this would be a great opportunity for our church to help out. Anyone insterested?

Many of us have volunteered to take part and you can too! The cart will need continual “refreshing” every month with new stationary, books and other things. You can also designate some loonies or twoonies to help keep the cart stocked. It’s at the Beech Grove Nursing home if you want to visit!

National Local Survey

Thursday, January 27th, 2011

Two years ago when we participated in a national online survey of all of the churches in the network of Vineyard churches in Canada. The plan was to repeat this survey in two years so that we could assess our progress. The two year period is now complete and we are ready to roll out this survey again in February.

The aim of the simple, anonymous survey is to help each local community get a crystal clear picture of where they really are. It will show you your strengths and your primary challenges and help you identify your growing edge. It will also show you other churches that can be a great help to you in your weaker areas.

The survey is for people aged 15 and older. Please take time to participate.

On Sunday, February 20 the SURVEY WILL BE ACTIVE and we’ll provide a link to the survey site.
