Church Work Bee - Saturday, October 27 at 8:00 am
On Saturday, October 27th we will have annual fall 'Work Bee' starting at 8:00 am, to prepare our church for the winter months. We will do some trimming and remove all the leaves, dead plants, fallen brush and other debris from the church grounds. Participants are asked to bring rakes, to collect the debris. A trailer will be used to collect and transport the yard waste. Should the weather not afford outdoor work, we will focus on 'housekeeping' and re-organizing some of the less used areas within the church.

Harvest Thanksgiving Service - Sunday, September 30
Parishioners brought their garden, or store-bought produce, flowers or non-perishable food items to decorate the Church for Harvest. The Altar Guild members did a wonderful job arranging all the gifts around the altar. This Harvest Offering was given to Kingston Interval House Women’s Shelter.
Then the land will yield its harvest, and God, our God, will bless us.

Seniors' Gathering - Friday, May 25
Our final Seniors’ gathering was a celebration of ten years of ministry to our St. Thomas seniors. The idea for this outreach was proposed by Phil and Marian Neatby. It was coordinated by them, Betty and Don Boone and Ken and Marian Gates for the first five years. The following five years were coordinated by Marg Milner with help from Sue Orgill and Heather McCormick.
John Perreault put together a slide show of pictures from our gatherings over the years which brought back fond memories of these events. Thanks to Phil, Marian and Marg for their dedication to this ministry.
