We've Got Servants!


In case you were wondering about the heart of our Church, I think we're on track to mirroring the Father's heart.  I am blown away at the number of people that helped with Zain's memorial and the way in which they helped.  We hosted around 500 people in the celebration of Zain's life.

About 50 volunteers made today's service a success.  First, thank you to everyone has loved and prayed for the Krikau family over the last 10 days.  Thank you to Jim W. for scanning all those photos, creating the video, and then setting up and running the video feed to the youth centre.  Thank you to Cindy W. for heading up all the logistics from set-up to clean-up.  Thank you to Lynn B. and her girls for organizing and doing all the food (they were at the Church till midnight on Friday and then back again at 9:00am on Saturday).  Thank you to the Espezel's, Watson's, Randall's, and Clark's for helping with janitorial and clean-up!  Dave P. arrived early this morning to weed eat, then raced back to usher and help with clean-up.  Then there were a bunch of ladies in the kitchen helping with food service and kitchen cleaning.  About a dozen helped with parking and ushering.  All in all we had people from age 9 to 80 helping!  There are lots of people that I missed too!

I know the Krikau family are very blessed and grateful for our Church family and for our loving them in this way.

In case you missed the service, we'll put the video online in the near future.

Once again, thank you to everyone.  I am blessed to serve alongside you.
