The Mission and Outreach Committee is happy to report that the Ten Thousand Villages sale was again a great success for St. Mark’s and thanks to all those who helped in any way! (See report elsewhere in Contact).
Of our $12,600 M&S Objective for the year 2006, $9000 has been submitted and it is anticipated that we will reach our target. The Pringle cans have brought in about $500 and if you still have yours, please don’t feel it is too late to return it! Just put it in the collection plate and be sure to record your envelope number as it will all be receipted!
It is time to renew your subscription to The United Church Observer. If you have never gotten this subscription, it is a wonderful way to keep in touch with your church and your faith community. It has lots of thought provoking articles, reports of what is going on in other churches, and around the world and how the United Church and its people are part of it all. I personally think it is a great little magazine and one that I usually read cover-to-cover - sometimes sitting in the car in front of the Post Office! And it is the best deal in town as a one-year subscription is only $14. Remember to renew your subscription or if you haven’t got it - it is time to pick it up!!! See Bonnie Dawson!
