Hey Sherwood Park!
We are running a a collection for the Strathcona Food Bank as they collect lunch snack items for local families in need. Donations can be placed in the Sherwood Park foyer and will be collected through September 20th.
SP Jr Highs, invite a friend and join us for an outdoor games night at the SP Site! We will have lots of game options, but come ready with a change of clothes, a towel, a water bottle, and a water gun in case weather permits! We will have some refreshing snacks and a backup plan in case weather goes sideways.
This summer, join us every other week for a youth event! Our Youth Summer Bonfires will be hosted by different families across our church! We look forward to connecting over snacks, yard games, and, of course, a bonfire! Bring a lawn chair and invite some friends!
Care Visiting Team Interest Invitation
We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If it is serving, then serve. . . If it is to encourage, then give encouragement . . . If it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully. Romans 12:6-8
Do you have a passion for serving, encouragement and mercy? Do you have a compassionate heart for seniors?
At Central, we value people of all stages including the aging and the isolated. Many aging friends can struggle with purpose as they experience transitions like retirement, aging issues and health struggles. It is also easy to forget about those who can no longer regularly join us.
But we want seniors to know that God isn’t done with them. God hasn’t forgotten them. We want to participate in God’s loving purposes by intentionally reaching out to the lonely and those isolated because of aging issues, illness and loss.
So, we’re developing care visiting teams at each of our sites. Team members connect regularly with seniors in need of encouragement and prayer. We go to homes, care facilities or hospitals. We experience Jesus releasing those He’s gifted to bring His hope and love to the isolated.
If this opportunity interests you, please join us for the Care Visiting Team Information Seminar on Wednesday, Sept 9 at 7 PM (at our Connor's Hill site) to discuss this possibility. All prospective team members will need to complete an application process. We will provide teaching, resources and on the job training.
Please RSVP HERE.
Thanks so much for your interest!
Sincerely,
Tom Anderst - Pastor of Seniors
