Regina CGIT meeting at Wesley

The Regina CGIT group will be starting on Wednesday, September 8, 2010.  We will be meeting from 7 – 9 pm at Wesley United Church, Room 105.  All interested girls from ages 12 – 17 are invited to join us.  Parents are invited to join us for the entire evening.  Knowing how busy parents are, you are also invited to come and join us at 8:30 pm this is more convenient for your schedule.

On September 25 the CGIT will be holding a Hot Dog Sale at the Peavey Mart (3939 East Quance Gate).  The sale will run from 10 am – 4 pm.  We will be selling hotdogs, donuts, and drinks.  We hope to see you there.

All CGIT Alumnae are invited to join us for an afternoon tea on Sunday, October 24 at the Floral Conservatory (1450B 4th Ave., Regina) from 2 – 4 p.m.  We will be celebrating 95 years of CGIT.  For more information on any of the above, please call: 789 3949 or 543 3439.

 

Church School Registration

Church school registration will be on Sept 12th with first classes (hopefully) beginning on Sept. 19th. There will continue to be an all ages program every Sunday until then.

United Church Launches an 
Emergency Appeal for Pakistan

Pakistan continues to struggle in response to massive flooding, which has affected an estimated 20 million people. Continuing monsoon rains have washed away roads and bridges and are hampering relief efforts. The rains also sometimes make it impossible for relief and rescue helicopters to reach stranded communities.

The United Church of Canada, together with other members of the global ACT Alliance, is continuing to monitor and respond to the crisis. As a result of donations made by its members, the United Church sent $25,000 to ACT immediately following initial news of the crisis, and has now sent an additional $40,000 also to be used for ACT's work on the ground.

ACT members in Pakistan are working diligently to deliver assistance including food, water, tents, kitchen kits, hygiene kits, mosquito nets, and emergency medical care.

The United Church has also contributed $75,000 through its membership in the Canadian Foodgrains Bank (CFGB). The funds will be used for a multi-CFGB member supported project that will provide food kits containing rice, lentils, flour, oil, sugar, salt, tea, and spices.

The United Church will receive donations to its Emergency Response Fund and channel these through the ACT Alliance to provide a coordinated response with other church organizations. Please continue to hold the people of Pakistan in prayer. You are encouraged to make a monetary donation through your congregation to ‘The United Church of Canada’ and designate it to “Pakistan Flood Relief”.

Banff Men’s Conference 2010

There is something special happening for MEN this fall. It is the Banff Men's Conference 2010 happening Oct 15 -17. This is an annual conference for Men covering spiritual and secular issues. There will be lots of discussion with sharing of thoughts, experiences and ideas, combined with worship and plenty of singing. And of course there is an inspiring speaker to guide us through the theme of the conference which is:

 To Seek Justice and Resist Evil:

Making a Straight Path for the Lord.

The theme speaker, Brigadier General Peter Holt (retired) has strived for 39 years in the Canadian Armed Forces to be a soldier of Christ as well as a soldier of the military. He will lead us on a journey to explore our feelings on these matters and empower us to discuss our views in an open and respectful manner.

There are also numerous workshops planned. This conference promises to be both engaging and memorable and if you are a man you should come.

 Everything you need is  at the following website: www.banffmen.org.

 

 Wesley Lay Leadership

Thank you to all who have accepted a position in the Wesley Lay Leadership.  This means that over 70 people have volunteered to carry on the work of the church in designated roles.
