You'll need to bring light gloves and likely a warm coat. If you have a lawn rake please bring that as well. Hope to see you there, it should be a light morning and hopefully the work is mostly done by the time we break out the coffee and doughnuts.

CHBC Snow removal

The Trustees at CHBC are very much in need of occasional help with snow removal this winter. You would go onto a list with several other volunteers and be on a rotating weekly schedule. Duties include cleaning the entrances and steps when it snows. If you are able to help, or would like more information please call Randy Seabrook at 250-565-7906.

Volunteers Needed!

We need one more Junior Youth Boy Sunday School teacher and one person to take over organizing the Nursery. Please contact Joyel if you can help.

Advokate Hope for Women - The Advokate Celebrate Life Gala was Thursday, October 2nd. It was a wonderful night of hearing the difference that Advokate is making in the lives of women, men, families, and teens. The fundraising from this event so far is an incredible $106,945 and counting! If you didn't get a chance to attend the Gala, you can watch the livestream portion. It is a great opportunity to learn all the ways Advokate reaches out with love, grace, care, and education to Prince George and across Canada. The keynote speaker was Matt Hammitt, who not only sang some of his beautiful songs but also shared a few incredible stories of his life and legacy. Prince George Celebrate Life Gala.
