Connecting the Heart with the Head... a Lenten Journey
Connecting the Heart with the Head is a refreshing four-week online Lenten dialogue that will explore the deepening of our faith by reaffirming or reconnecting our hearts with our heads.
Beginning on Wednesday evening, March 3rd at 7:00pm, we invite you to join the Rev Wayne Parsons via an online Webex video call. For 45 minutes each Wednesday evening for four consecutive weeks, in a COVID safe environment, we will discuss a topic of interest.
To sign-up for this online series, simply send your email, in confidence, to rev.wayneparsons@nf.sympatico.ca. Prior to our first session, you will receive a link or instructions to download the Webex app which is required to connect to this videoconference series.

Kids Corner
The word Lent means Spring. The season of Lent lasts for 40 days because that is how long Jesus was in the desert, fasting and resisting Satan’s temptations.
Please click the Kids Corner button to the left to reach our resource area for a variety of Christian Youth Education activities. If you would like to be a part of this exciting Ministry, please let us know by clicking here. Stay tuned for a new craft activity each Sunday....
