WORDS OF THANKS

A big thank you to Ab & Faye Boogerman for setting up a ‘Stormy Sea’ last Sunday. What a fun conclusion to the service! (Did you miss it? Be sure to check out the end of the sermon video from last Sunday for a little glimpse.)

GOING GREEN

We are making small changes to help HMC be a little bit greener. We have purchased new dishes in an effort to reduce our constant use of paper and styrofoam. Join the team and help make this an easy transition! We need volunteers to help with the dishes during our Building Connection Sundays and other church family food events. Please consider signing up to help! See the podium in the foyer and let us know what month you’re available. Events occur approximately once a month.

PRAYER REQUESTS

We are hiring a new part-time pastor. Please be praying for the team responsible for going through applications. Pray for wisdom and discernment as they listen to God’s direction.

KEEPING YOU IN THE LOOP

Please join with us every Monday to pray. Set your alarms to 5:14 a.m. or p.m. each Monday and let’s come together to pray for our church, our vision, and our leadership.

WHEN THE DOORS ARE LOCKED

Some changes are being made to increase our security. We are no longer comfortable leaving the main doors unlocked if less than two staff members are in the building. If you require immediate assistance, the care line is always open (519-379-1752) or you can call the office at 519-364-1823. Either Marie (ex21) or Alanna (ex32) are usually in the building until 4:00.
