·       Re-Opening Knox - The Knox sanctuary will be open for public worship NEXT Sunday, March 6th!  Protocols will be the same as before, for the time being.  This means that worship will NOT be pre-recorded, but will be LIVE at 11:00!  See you then!

·       Communion Sunday - Next Sunday, March 6th, we will celebrate the Sacrament of Holy Communion.  Please remember to bring your elements either to worship or to the place where you view the service!  Packaged elements will be available for those who forget to bring theirs.  Hopefully someday not too far away, we will be able to at least go back to common plates (with precautions)!

            o   The people of the Ukraine as they are suffering under the invasion of Russian forces, and those of                    Ukrainian descent here in Canada as they worry about loved ones “back home”

            o The politicians and the diplomats trying to bring the hostilities in the Ukraine to an end

            o Those who are struggling in other civil war hotspots around the world that just don’t have the                                         “advantage” of being threatened by a global superpower

            o Those who are so broken by the events of the past couple of years that they have almost no room                          left in their hearts to care about situations like those above. 

Thanks, as always, to everyone for your continued support of the work and ministry of our congregations!
