And we are back! Thank you for being patient, we have entered into a reduced schedule for the summer which means the website won't be updated as much, but we are doing the best we can.

MENNONITE WORLD CONFERENCE 2009

Last week (June 5-7) was the annual meeting for Mennonite Church Canada. Those who gathered in Saskatoon enjoyed a good time of meeting together, singing, and conducting some of the "business" of the church. A few highlights:
- discussion around what it means to be a faithful church in the midst of disagreements
- reports on the ongoing growth and development of Mennonite churches across the country
- a resolution committing the national church, area conferences, and local churches to actively promoting Jesus' message of peace, in the face of increasing Canadian militarization

We are celebrating Pentecost together with the
First United Spanish Mennonite Church
All are welcome to join us in welcoming new members to our churches and celebrating in 3 languages. After the service we are hosting a potluck in the basement, as well as, visiting with our friends and former pastor Pye Chew, his wife Lori and 2 children Ester & Lucas.

Seniors Afternoon Singalong, Wednesday June 3 at 2:00 pm
