Celebration of the signing of the Waterloo Declaration. This year we are celebrating this event with a Communion Service held in the grounds of St. James Lutheran Church Mannheim, (1000 Knechtel Court - off Ottawa St.) The service is on July 4th and starts at 10.30 followed by a pot-luck lunch. Please bring a lawn chair, sun umbrella, plate, cutlery and your favourite pot-luck contribution. If the weather is inclement we will use the church facilities. For further information please call the church office.
All are welcome please join us in this celebration between the Lutheran and Anglican Churches.
Knitting for Central and South America We have a new activity at St. George’s! It came to our attention that people in the mountainous areas of countries in Central and South America live through damp cold winters. A nurse working in these areas noticed that many people, and in particular children, contracted chest conditions including pneumonia. To help prevent this she thought that they needed protection from the inclement weather and asked friends and family in North America to knit vests for them. Thank you to everyone who has responded to the call for knitters. This is an on going Outreach programme and your involvement is greatly appreciated. There is a plastic container in the Narthex containing patterns and yarn for anyone who is interested in joining our industrious group of knitters. (If you crochet there is a pattern for you too). Donation of yarn is also appreciated.
