and it can make all the difference.

We're looking for volunteers from the congregation to support us in our project The mainSTAGE concert series.

What does it involve? Answering questions such as: "Where in the world are the washrooms in this church?" And that is all. You will spend the evening listening to what we think is the best music the city will be offering this year, and be helping our church by being great stewards!

The mainSTAGE concert series is once a month, on Saturday evenings. All the musicians have been wonderful and brave in joining us on this adventure. We would love to show them our strong community spirit in return.

Please join us in presenting the most spectacular opening season we could have imagined!

WOW! Our congregation supported the United Church of Canada's Mission & Service last year by donating $31,767. That's more than $2,600 a month!

See the thank you letter and certificate below, and posted on the bulletin board by the Coburg Rd entrance.* Annual Reports are also up for grabs at the door.

We ask that as you purchase your food to celebrate Thanksgiving, you consider the terrible impact Tropical Storm Fiona has had on our farmer’s and local food producers!

Many Farmer’s Markets are open this weekend. Markets open this weekend can be found HERE.

Fresh fruit & veggies, organic meat, unusual cheeses, and prepared spices, etc. can add extra flavour to your food and support the local economy. But also, PLEASE consider shopping from roadside stands, small shops, and parked vehicles all selling locally produced food - often from smaller farms and individual producers.

Stop in at your local store owned by a newcomer, and include some locally-produced, ethnic items as part of your menu...Maybe you will make new friends with whom you can break bread!
