7. Our Community Services Department is participating with Mission Services in
their Special Items Drive. With winter fast approaching, we are looking to assist them
with new scarves, hats, gloves, and very gently used winter coats. If you are able to
hand make any items by knitting or crochet to add a personal touch would also be
greatly appreciated! May God bless us as we endeavour to reach out to the community
with this special project
8. ATTENTION Hamilton Mountain! Do you want to truly make a difference in
your church? Do you welcome an opportunity to enrich the lives of others? If so,
Hamilton Mtn SDA now has a new committee designed to help us serve one another
in areas of need called the “Our Church Cares Committee”. We need your help to
make this endeavor a great success! If you are interested in giving back to your church
in any capacity, or in need of any assistance, please speak to Olia or Aliana Griffith for
details or leave a message at the church.
Health corner: If you feel like your sleep has been interrupted by poor digestion then
read on! When you eat, your metabolism revs up to digest the food, and in turn causes
your body temperature to rise. The process of digestion increases brain activity, which
can interrupt a normal sleep pattern. Try to plan eating dinner early enough so a full
stomach doesn't interrupt sweet sweet dreams!
