THE 3RD SUNDAY AFTER PENTECOST

26 June 2022

Welcome!  We extend a warm welcome to our guests, and invite you to sign the guest book at the back of the sanctuary.  Everyone is invited to remain for a cup of coffee in the Church Hall following the service.  Enjoy a piece of cake as well, in celebration of Rob McPherson’s 65th birthday!

Summer Services – This year, we’re returning to our tradition of participating in joint summer services with the two United Church congregations in town, as announced in the Newsletter.  This summer, we will be exploring various miracle stories in the Bible, and the schedule will be as follows:

July          3      McKenzie     Jesus feeds the five thousand

              10      McKenzie     Jesus heals a man blind from birth

              17      McKenzie     Jesus raises Lazarus from death

              24      First              God provides manna in the wilderness

              31      First              The healing of Naaman

August     7      First              Jesus heals a centurion’s slave

              14      Trinity           Jesus calms a storm

              21      Trinity           Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego

              28      Trinity           Jesus turns water into wine.

Summer Services(continued)

This year, all services will be led by the minister of the host congregation.  Since McKenzie doesn’t yet have a minister, services there will be led by Norman Collier (3, 17 July) and Julie Hutton (10 July).  Pandemic protocols at both McKenzie and Trinity are pretty much the same as those here at First.  For details, see the separate announcement, below.
