Thank You Volunteers Monarch Reformed Church To have control means to have authority, to have power, to be in command. When everything seems to go out of control, remember that God still controls everything. Even though there are those who think they have great power and try to control the world there are many signs showing that this is not to be. Even a simple thing like the fire we have just experienced in our area is proof that some things can become uncontrollable. The fire may have been preventable but once it started it travelled, and with the aid of the wind it travelled fast. It took hundreds of people and pieces of equipment working together to bring the fire under control. Our world can be much like a fire and go out of control due to the beliefs and the actions of man, when in fact so much trouble could be prevented if only we would work together, treat each other equal and put our trust in God.

Proud grandparents are Jim and Sylvia Van Egmond and proud great-grandmother is Janette Van Egmond. Jack Plomp, husband of Nellie Plomp, passed away on July 19, 2012 at the age of 82 years. Jack, the son of John and Pietje Plomp, was born on February 15, 1930 and lived in the Nobleford area his entire life. Jack was affiliated with the Monarch Reformed Church throughout his life, including his baptism as a infant, his adult confession of faith and his marriage to Nellie Hofman. Jack and Nellie were married on May 25, 1956 and together they had four children: Mary Jean, Nancy, Stan and Randy. Jack chose to be a farmer and eventually he and Nellie bought and settled on the farm where Nellie’s grandparents, Tymen and Heiltje Hofman, had settled in 1907. Thank you to all those who supported the garage sale held by the Monarch Reformed Church on Nobleford Heritage Day. Mayors Message This has been an exceptional summer with our children making good use of all the parks; especially the water spray park. Also now available is the Apollo (merry-go-round) in Centennial Park . Fall is get-back-to-school time; so slow down and drive safely. There has been good interest in a Community Library with Noble Central School . Please call me for more information. Anyone can think, dream and imagine. Translating those thoughts into positive action often takes plenty of teamwork and collaboration. In most things we do in life we have to work WITH rather than AGAINST each other to get something done. The best teams in the world are the ones that help people become better and achieve more that they ever thought they could do on their own. Let us think positive and change the negative. A good example is a gift you give to others. Sincerely, Marguerite Wobick, Mayor of the Village of Nobleford.

We can observe these changes as we see the vivid colors of red, yellow and orange overtaking the once green foliage of the trees; all signs that our great God is the Master controller of the universe. He set the times and seasons for us to enjoy – all in proper order as He promised. Take a moment out of your busy schedules and focus on the changing landscape, the beautiful sunrises and sunsets and say in your hearts “Thank you, Lord!” * September is also a month of “new beginnings”. For some it will mean being a full time student for the first time or advancing to another grade – all endeavoring to learn new ideas and concepts. For the recent high school graduates who have chosen to continue their education at a university, college or trade school it will mean a transition from a more structured environment to that of being responsible for decisions made for the future. It is our prayer that students, teachers, administrators, support staff and bus drivers will have a blessed 2012-2013 school year. * September is also the month in which church programs commence a new season. Sunday, Sept. 9th was Commissioning Sunday at which time new and present office bearers, youth leaders, teachers, counselors and volunteers were thanked for their pledge of commitment to the various ministries of the church. “Whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men” – Col. 3:23.

We thank Him for the awesome weather enjoyed throughout the past summer; for safety as we vacationed; for the bounty of the land received; for safety for the farmers as they harvested the ripened grain. We continue to pray for further blessings for the remainder of the year. “Give thanks to God for He is good”. * REFORMATIO/ DAY – a worship service will be held on Sunday, Oct. 28th at 3:00 p.m. at Trinity Reformed Church. Guest minister will be Rev. M. Chung, affiliated with Home Missions Canada. The Reformation that took place many years ago plays an important role in the history of the church. Everyone welcome. * Congratulations to Erik and Jalene Vander Merwe who exchanged marriage vows on August 22nd. God’s blessings to them as they begin a new chapter in their lives. The young couple resides in Nobleford. “Love is of God” – 1 John 4:7 * Continue to support through prayer our elected officials be that locally, provincially or federally.

Since 2004 there has been nearly 1 million dollars spent on Nobleford recreation projects. Not-for-Profit Initiatives Funding Policy #02-22 is in place to help you. Nobleford Council recognized that the practice of simply gifting funds to organizations is ineffective and that there was a deficiency in project funding. The Village has developed policies that would give interested community groups the opportunity for funding of projects (i.e. environmental, parks, recreation, and culture) that would make Nobleford a better place, yet not place a financial burden on the Nobleford property taxpayer. These policies were intended to foster healthy Society partnerships with the Village and encourage responsible planning and activities that would not burden the taxpayer with increasing maintenance and operational costs. A reserve account was created which is significantly funded from non property tax revenues lots in the new Nobleford subdivisions. The monies in this fund may be available to any Nobleford Society with an Village approved project plan. They must be willing to raise the equivalent cash funds along with a successful application of a grant from outside of Nobleford; such as, CFEP, CIP. There are basically 3 parts to the initiative funding that multiply the money. 1-Your cash 2- Village Cash match 3- Provincial or Federal grant to match yours and Village cash. For example ~ if the Society raised $1000 in cash, the Village may contribute up to $1000 in cash, Alberta Government, Community Initiative Program grant is received for a minimum of $2000 You basically turn your $1000 of cash into $4000 None of these special interest projects become a reality without volunteers, your donations and funding. Deadline for Initiatives funding policy #02-22 application is December 31, Please meet with the Village CAO to discuss your opportunities. 2011 Census The 2011 Census data on families, households and marital status are now available for Canada, provinces and territories, and for your municipality.

They were thankful for these as they feasted away, and as they were thankful we're thankful today.
