ST. MATTHEW’S

A Study of St. Mark’s Gospel - A short study on the
Gospel of St. Mark will be offered on two consecutive
Thursdays, Nov 13th and 20th from 11:00 a.m. until 1:00
p.m. There will be a reading and reflection and a bowl of
soup for lunch. This will be excellent preparation to begin hearing the way St. Mark tells the story of Jesus.
Mark will be the main Gospel heard in our worship for the next liturgical year beginning in Advent. Our student intern, Victoria Scott,
will be leading this study. Plan to join us if you can.
Anglican Diocese of Ottawa—Creation
Matters Dialogue: Fossil Fuel Divestment
and Re-investment—According to
Archbishop Desmond Tutu, “people of conscience need to break their ties with corporations financing the injustice of climate change.” Should we, as individuals and as a church, join the fossil fuel divestment movement,
and re-invest in other ways? Join Creation Matters, the environmental
subcommittee of the Diocese of Ottawa, with invited speakers/
panelists, for presentations and discussion on fossil fuel divestment
and re-investment for individuals and the church.
When: 2 - 5 pm, Saturday 15 November 2014 at St. Matthew’s.

supper (soup, bread, cheese) starting at 6:15pm each evening and the
talk will start at 7:00pm and e finish by 8:00pm. Sign up sheet on the
big table at the back of the church (offers to contribute soup, bread or
