CHBC White Cross Work Session
Saturday, October 24, 10:00am–3:00pm in the Church basement
Everyone is welcome to join us! No sewing experience is required, and there are a variety of ways to help. Drop in whenever you can or come for the whole day. There is also an opportunity to win a door prize!
Congregational Meeting
Tuesday, October 27 at 7:00 pm, in person or online
Members, please join us for our fall congregational meeting. We'll be discussing and voting to adopt the proposed 2027 budget, and catching up on ministry items that are hard to share through the weekly email or Sunday announcements. The agenda, budget and May minutes were emailed to members. Please be in prayer as we seek to wisely steward the resources the Lord has entrusted to us.
Trunk or Treat
Saturday, October 31, in the church parking lot
Join us for CHBC's Trunk-or-Treat, a safe, family-friendly Halloween outreach for our community. Set up your vehicle at 5:45 pm and hand out treats from your trunk 6:00–7:30 pm; hot chocolate and coffee will be provided for adults. It's a great chance to talk with parents about Sunday School, Tuesday Tots, Jr. & Senior Youth Groups and our other programs, and most of all to share Jesus' light and love with our neighbours.
Ideas to help you prepare: fill your trunk with candy, dress warmly for any weather, bring a lawn chair, and bring a flashlight or lighting and extension cords if you can. Feel free to decorate your trunk with a fun (not scary) theme.
No vehicle? No problem! Donations of extra candy, chips or pop are gladly welcomed.
Questions? Contact Joyel Huber at joyel@mychbc.ca.
