Greetings,
Larry is on study leave this week but will be leading Worship Service on Sunday.
This Sunday is Pentecost with Sunday School Presentations and the Family Picnic SUNDAY
This Sunday is Pentecost Sunday. Larry is going to focus on language and communication, contrasting what happened at Babel and why with what happened at Pentecost. During the Time for All Ages we will be honouring the work of the Sunday School as our regular Sunday School classes come to an end for the season. If you, or members of you family, have been part of the Sunday School during the past year as teachers or as students please join us on Sunday. And after the service we will be joining together for a BBQ. There will be lots of food and games. Hopefully the skies will be clearer, so that the BBQ can be outside. Be optimistic and bring your lawn chairs!
The Scripture readings for the service are Genesis 11:1-9, Acts 2: 1-21 and John 14: 25-27. The sermon is entitled “Divided or United?”. The Time for all Ages is entitled “Do you understand me?”.

We have decided that we will proceed with a Photo Directory for this our tenth year as Spirit West in our current building, and the fortieth anniversary of our constitution as a congregation. Photos will be taken from 2:30 to 8:30 pm on Monday, June 10 and Tuesday, June 11. The only cost to you is if you decide to purchase copies of the photos. Even if you do not purchase photos, your family photo will appear in the directory, and you will receive a free 8 x 10 photo as well as a free photo directory.
Pick a time (only evening appointment times left) to get your photos taken, there is a schedule by the church office. Or call Norma at the office to book a time.
