FOR YOUR INFORMATION
HAPPY SABBATH and welcome to a time of worship today with others in the family of God. Let us praise the Lord today for His
constant goodness and love for us.
THE OFFERING TODAY during the worship services is for our local church budget. An average of $23,300 is needed each month to
provide for the needs of all departments of our church. Your consistent support will help to provide these needs. Donations for offerings
may be made online through the church website: www.chsda.ca

CONGRATULATIONS to Lew and Marlene Fleck whose wedding anniversary is November 16 and to Joe and Ruth Strutz who will
celebrate their 62nd anniversary on November 20.
RENOvember: Church members are “wearing special glasses” that help them appreciate the church renovations and encourage them to
donate in a special way this month. One member pledged the interest on a GIC; another will donate a toonie for each audience member
at the recent Sunday at Seven concert; one family is building a “Josiah box” so as they give, they can hear funds “clink-clank.” What
blessings will you share?
