What's Coming!

Summer Office Hours:

Tina will be in the office on Tuesdays and Fridays from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

She can be at the church on an “as needed” basis on other days, but this needs to be arranged in advance with an email or with a message left with the office.

Wednesday Evening Worship:

There will be no Wednesday Evening Worship during the month of July as Kathi is on vacation. It will be returning in August.

Awareness of Possible Scam

I received an email from Rev. Kathi informing me of an internet scam that has been sent to some UC congregations in Ontario.

Kathi wants everyone to know that any email that looks like it is sent by her and asks for financial help is a scam. Kathi would never ask any of you for cash, gift cards or any other monetary assistance. Please stay alert and be cautious with whom you share personal information on the phone or by email.

Donations to EMUC

Some of you have asked how you can make donations to operations, mission and service, the benevolent fund, and the Deacon’s Cupboard. You can donate through Canada Helps by going to www.emuc.ca or by mailing a cheque to EMUC at 3010 The Collegeway, Mississauga, ON., L5L 4X9. Please mark the envelope "Attention Envelope Secretary".

Please note that Deacon's Cupboard would prefer to receive financial donations rather than actual food donations because the church remains closed so that managing food is difficult. The Cupboard is giving only vouchers to its guests. They are open only on Wednesdays and not on Monday evenings for the duration of the pandemic.

Note: Broadview Magazine is celebrating its One Year anniversary since making major changes. Go to its website using the link under Contact Us to make a celebratory donation.

Thank you to everyone for your ongoing support.
