I've posted a number of pictures in our album at http://picasaweb.google.com/stmarksanglican
for you to take a look at from several functions that happened in September...but I'll add a couple here too!
First, on September 12 we had to say good-bye to one of our Lay Readers, Brenda, as she moved to Oliver with her husband Dwayne. We baptized her grandson Nathan the same day as the farewell. We wish Brenda and Dwayne all the best in their new home!
Then, on September 19, we had the Stew and Bannock Luncheon; a fundraiser for Council of the North. We raised $271 from the luncheon!! We also celebrated Jen's 89th Birthday the same day!!
Back to Church Sunday on September 26 saw several new and returning faces join us at both St. Mark's and Christ Church - Welcome!! (No pictures!!) A grand lunch and fellowship followed worship!
Sunday School was also back in full swing with the new curriculum and some new faces.
The Fun(D)raising Committee was hard at work during September planning our regular Poor Boy Lunches (next on on October 29 at 11:30am), a spring dinner and a spring concert among other things!
And we also acquired a 'new' organ which now graces the sanctuary. The necessary placement of the organ has caused a bit of shuffling of our altar and decisions to be made around what's best for the layout and celebration of communion. We are trying a few variations and will see how people feel before the final decision is made.
Keep an eye out...lots of things still to come between now and Christmas and beyond - never a dull moment at Parish of the South Peace!
Peace
