WE ARE MOVING INDOORS!

Let's join together to focus on the past year of 2022! Sip some hot chocolate or coffee, enjoy a hot dog or a traditional treat (oliebollen) and share in the joy and peace of this season. We will have a Peace Tree, everyone is encouraged to create a PEACE DOVE in advance(kits will be available and can be made in the council room)and visit the Disagreeing Well to reflect and release, using rocks to symbolize prayers for peace around the world. Children will also receive a take away bag. There is NO admission cost or RSVP for this event (it is free!) If the rain lightens up we still hope to have a fire pit or two to enjoy outside.

*We will host this service in the foyer/fellowship hall.

It's cold out there. The Coldest Night of the Year is a covid-safe, family-friendly walk to raise money for charities serving people experiencing homelessness, hurt, and hunger. It's been a hard year, and the fallout has been real.  

Now, more than ever, we need to come together as a community to support those for whom the price of a difficult COVID year has cost their homes or their families.  Together, as a community, we can stand up and step out. Head over to https://cnoy.org/location/brantford to pick a team to join, or to create your own.  

SUNDAY Sept 20th at 7PM 

This event is intended as a bit of a meet and greet and discussion about what the next year is going to look like. We will be providing drinks, hot dogs, and snacks. This will be an outdoor event(campfire) and we will be social distancing.
