Baptism Sunday
At Living Hope we believe that baptism is an important step of obedience to God, and a way for us to share our story with our church family. If you would like more information or would like to be baptized, contact Pastor Kirk at kirk@mylivinghope.ca
Arcola Community School Gift Bags
Every year, we bless the families at Arcola Community School by putting together gift bags full of goodies for the kids. Next Sunday Nov 27, you can pick a tag off the Christmas tree with instructions and ideas for what to pack in a gift bag to bless a boy or girl in our community. You may want to start looking now for both fun and practical items such as small toys, mitts, hats, soap, toothbrushes, and the like.
Christmas Eve Service
Our Christmas Eve service is coming up, and we have so much planned! We need greeters and ushers for both the 4:00 and 6:00 services. We also need volunteers to work in the kitchen and at the party in the gym following the 4:00 service. If you would like to be involved email info@mylivinghope.ca
