A Note from Rev'd Ben

Dear St. George's,

​
Our Old Testament reading this Sunday is one of the most dramatic in the Bible: Moses is out tending his flock when he meets...God! God speaks to Moses out of a burning bush, telling him that his life is about to change forever. For God has chosen Moses to be God's instrument to deliver his people from bondage in Egypt and bring them to the land God promised to Abraham so long ago. We might not have the same sort of dramatic experiences that Moses did. But God is calling each of us too -- calling us to a total transformation of our lives in service to our neighbors. And just as God was with Moses, so he promises to be with us. May we each have the grace to hear God's call and answer it, this week and always!

​
Yours in Christ,

Ben

Community Corner

Call for Vendors: Seasonal Market

St. George’s Anglican Church is exploring interest from local makers and small businesses for a potential fall community market. We’d love to hear from local artisans, crafters, artists, makers, bakers, seasonal gift vendors, and small businesses who may be interested in taking part.

If you’d like to be considered as a potential vendor, please get in touch and tell us a little about what you offer.

An Update from St. Michael's Mission

Hello all,

I have returned and I hope everyone had a wonderful couple of weeks. I am looking forward to speaking with any members of St. Georges who want to come by on my next office hour session on Wednesday September 9^th from 2-3pm.

I want to thank all the members of St. George’s who continue to support our community as we truck along. That being said, we are very much in need of clothing for our community as this time of year tends to be a little slower, where donations are concerned, with folks transitioning between vacation and back to work/school. If you have anything to spare in the coming weeks, the following is the list of our community needs:

• Men’s pants
• T-shirts & sweaters/ sweatshirts
• Boxers
• *Socks *
• Backpacks
• Running shoes

As usual we also are very happy to receive tupperware, yogurt containers, empty pill containers, etc… (for distributions of food, shampoo, etc…).

Feel free to email me if you have any ideas or questions concerning the St. Micheal’s Mission community.

Emma Campbell: ecampbell@stmichaelsmission.ca

And, as always, you are welcome to drop in and say hello when we are around!

Until next time!

Emma

This Sunday, August 30th
