Due to frozen pipes at the church, we moved the
Session and Board of Managers workshop to Monday
at 7pm. If you have an interest in how the leadership of
First Pres functions and how decisions are made, we
welcome you to come and sit in. It will be facilitated by
JP Smit from the PCC head office in Toronto. JP has
been a rep for our denomination for many years and
you will find his presentation both informative and
entertaining.
Thank You to Kathryn Garbutt for sharing her
wonderful talents with us this morning.
Unsung Hero - We are so thankful to Larry
Halliday and to John and Judy Attridge for their role
in getting our water flowing again!

Library Lines A renowned linguistics

Alzheimer’s in the book, Still Alice, which is a
moving but sensitive depiction of life for her
whole family. Highly recommended by our book
club when read five years ago; now a current, award
-winning movie.
Church School Update - At 9:00 am we
will focus another covenant: the promise
God made to Abram and to Sarai. At
10:30 am our Little Lambs learn how we
can all listen to God’s Word. Our grade

we care about each other. The 4/5 class will continue to
discuss how sometimes following Christ can be tough.
