Day camp comes to a close

Day Camp Rocked !

Not just because we were blessed with over 60 kids over the five weeks,

or we had an amazing team of interns(thank you federal govenerment), LITs and volunteers,

or because we had amazing trips to the Science Centre, Kidstown, Toronto Zoo,

or because we had some amazing worship times,

or because we had a couple of amazing actors performing the skits,

or because we had an amzing Bible Story teller,

or because we had amazing MCs,

or because we had an awesome camp director.

BUT because God was in our midst - answering prayer, planting seeds of faith in children's hearts and bringing 2 children to know him. PRAISE GOD !

2 Funerals

Over this weekend we've had two funerals at FAC. One Marjorie was the wife of the previous Senior Pastor here at First. We celebrated her life - a life full of fruit for God's Kingdom.
The other Kavar, a seventeen year old allegedly shot by a fourteen year old for defending his aunt.
It's a stark reminder that as individuals we don't know how much time God allows us to live on earth. But in that time God gives us to share the hope that we have we need to redeem the time - make it count for Him. There are so many people that won't come to church for us to tell or show them.
So it seems obvious that we have to go because we are vessels of that Hope in Christ Jesus. How can we keep it toourselves when we have been given it freely and abundantly ?
Join me and let's go !
