Everyone will experience grief at some point during their lifetime. Grief is often complicated, misunderstood, and unique to each person. This seminar will provide help, comfort, and a safe place for those who have suffered loss, through death, divorce, miscarriage, or any other form. Join us on Sunday, May 1, 15, 29, and June 12 from 1:00 pm – 2:30 pm with counsellors Michael Velecky and Lola Miller to encourage and support your journey.
Trailblazers’ (50+) Coffee Hour // May 25// 3:00 pm

At our next Trailblazers’ Coffee Hour, we’ll hear from special guest Marie Ens about the work she is doing in Cambodia through Place of Rescue. I hope you’ll join us on May 25 at 3:00 pm in the lounge and hear about what God is doing in Cambodia.
Church Family Lunch // June 12
Be sure to mark your calendar and plan to join us for lunch on June 12! We invite the whole church family to stay for a BBQ hamburger/hot dog lunch after church on that Sunday. This is a great way to meet new people and build friendships! The suggested donation is $5/person or $20/family. Hope to see you there!
PrayFirst // Sundays // 9:30 AM
Our mission at Living Hope is to become what Jesus envisions, and that begins with listening to Him and seeking His will. This is why we meet every Sunday at 9:30 am for PrayFirst. PrayFirst is a guided time of corporate prayer where we pray for each other, our church, our city, and the world. Join us as we watch God move powerfully through prayer and learn new ways to deepen your prayer life.
Call to Prayer // Wednesdays // 8:00 am – 10:00 am
Jesus said God’s house should be a place of prayer for all nations (Mark 11:17). The church auditorium will be open every Wednesday morning from 8:00 am – 10:00 am to provide a space to pray for the concerns of our world and community. Join us as we spend time with the Lord, boldly approaching the throne of grace in our time of need (Hebrews. 4:16) before going to work or starting your day’s activities.
