Gifts to Presbyterians
Sharing support Kenora Fellowship Centre as it offers shelter and comfort
to vulnerable, disadvantaged and displaced people in downtown Kenora, Ontario.
It is the only place in this area
offering people refuge from the streets. Its mentorship program offers hands-on
experience to young people like Donovan. Youth help with the daily lunch
program and take care of the elders, among other tasks. Donovan and others in
the mentorship program enjoyed helping establish a vegetable garden, working
alongside three elders who helped till and prepare the earth. An Ojibway elder
blessed the garden and made suggestions on how to plant according to his
teachings. Please pray for KFC as it reaches out to vulnerable youth and young
adults through its mentorship program.

World Day of Prayer 2015
Jesus
said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you? Written by the women of “The Bahamas”
World
Day Of Prayer is a worldwide movement of Christians of many traditions who come
together on the first Friday of March each year to observe a common day of
prayer. Through World Day of Prayer, we
affirm our faith in Jesus Christ and engage with the whole world; are enriched
by the faith experience of Christians of other countries and cultures; share
the burdens of other people, praying with them and for them; and use our
talents in the service of God’s world.
Prayer and action are inseparable and both have immeasurable influence
in the world.
ALL ARE INVITED to join us in celebrating World Day of
Prayer at St. Andrew’s United Church,
89 Mountainview Rd. S.,
Georgetown, Friday, March 6th
at 7:30 pm
