Skating at Harbourfront Centre

Come and join us as we spend some time as a group enjoying the God-given gift of glorious winter weather by going skating! You don't have to be good at it- just have a sense of enjoyment and fun...and be ready for a few falls! If you plan to join us, you can either meet as at Harbourfront Centre at 6:30 pm(at Queen's Quay between York St. and Spadina Ave.- just go and find the skating rink- it's right at the edge of the lake all the way south) or meet at the church parking lot at 6 pm and walk down from there to Harbourfront as a group.

You can bring your own skates, or you can rent. Rental is $7 per pair (you need to show ID- either a driver's license or a credit card). After skating, we are having snacks and hot chocolate at my house- we can walk over as I live very close to Harbourfront. Please let me know if you plan to come to my house after so I can prepare enough snacks.

***We will not have a study at the church due to the skating event. Regular studies on Genesis 5 will resume on Saturday, Jan. 26 @ 7:30 pm.***

One-Day David Brainerd Retreat at Grace Bible Church, Cambridge

Our group is planning on attending the winter retreat at Grace Bible Church. The theme of this retreat will be "Beyond Private Faith: Living for Christ in All Areas of Life". It is a wonderful opportunity to spend a whole day with fellow brothers and sisters in Christ and be encouraged by the Word and its practical applications. The main speaker will be Jonathan Wellum, affiliated with Toronto Baptist Seminary, who will examine how we can take the foundations on our faith in all aspects of our lives, including work, school, home and relationships.

I need to register our group by Monday Jan. 28 with the organizers at Grace. If you are planning on coming, please let me know by Saturday, Jan. 26 at the latest as the organizers at Grace need to know numbers to prepare enough food. The cost of the one-day retreat is $10, including transportation, drinks, snacks and dinner. You need to bring your own lunch or go to one of the food places near the church.

We plan on taking the church van as a group and will leave the church parking lot on Feb. 2 at 8:45 AM to travel by highway to Cambridge. Please be punctual as we need to sign in before 10 am at Grace.
