Flat Jesus is back this summer! Everyone is invited to take Jesus with them wherever they go, and don’t forget to send in photos to the church office (office@smchurch.ca) to share with the congregation! Copies & instructions are by the mailboxes.
Harvest Table: If you are growing a garden this year and have any extra vegetables, herbs, fruit, flowers, etc. to share, consider adding them to our Harvest Table on Sunday mornings (located across from the mailboxes). Please also help yourself to any of the items from the harvest table!! If you have any questions, please contact Ashley – ad.drudge@gmail.com
Summer Puzzle Activity: Throughout the summer, there will be a jigsaw puzzle set up in the library that all are welcome to work on! Gather around the puzzle table before or after the service to unwind, unplug, and connect!
