MISSION MOMENT

We are called to serve God with our many gifts. We belong to a denomination that is connected by faith, governance, history and mission. Presbyterians Sharing is one of the ways that Presbyterians across Canada work together to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ, sharing God’s love and hope in our communities, in Canada and around the world. Gifts to Presbyterians Sharing help build strong congregations, serve vulnerable people, walk with Indigenous people, seek justice and share God’s love. When we work together, we can accomplish so much more than we can on our own.

Our Charge book club will meet again on Saturday June 6th at 10:00 at Clyde River Church. We will be discussing the book The Hero Of This Book by Elizabeth Macraken.

Clyde River choir will have practice on Thursday May 21st at 7:00 p.m. at the church.

A night of toe tapping music is coming to Burnside Presbyterian Church with the Festival of Small Halls. On Wednesday June 17 at 7: 30 p.m. Richard Wood and friends ( Roger Stone & Luka Hall) will be sharing a night of Celtic music. Tickets are $30 and are available online or from members of the congregation.

We will be honouring our graduates from both congregations this year on Sunday June 14 at both services. Please pass along the name of anyone graduating from high school, university, or college to Steven or one of the elders so they might be acknowledged in the service.

Please save the date of a Charge fundraising dinner and entertainment on Saturday October 3 at APM Centre. More details to come.
