News and Announcements
Men and Women of Influence
Who has positively influenced you here at Living Hope? We are looking for brief video statements of how a man or woman has blessed your life. Perhaps that’s someone in a new friendship or a teacher from days gone by. Maybe that’s your parent or close friend. If you are interested in participating in our Women of Influence or Men of Influence moments, email shauna@mylivinghope.ca.
Mom’s Morning
Learn, play, and grow with your little while connecting with other moms at our Moms and Tots group. Join the fun on Wednesday mornings at 9 am in the nursery here at the church to build friendships and to gain wisdom and support on your parenting journey.
Teams Needed
We all know the saying, “Many hands make light work”, right? For some upcoming events here at Living Hope, many hands are needed! On Saturday, June 10, we will be having a Community Garage Sale in our parking lot. The next day, Sunday, June 11, is our all church BBQ. Finally, on Tuesday, June 27, we are hosting 400+ kids and staff from Arcola Community School for a hot dog lunch. All of these events need willing people to plan, set up, clean up, welcome guests, and more! Think about where you can serve with your gifts and abilities then email shauna@mylivinghope.ca to sign up.
