A special food collection for the Food Bank took place on Thanksgiving Sunday. There was a tremendous response and we thank everyone for their generosity. Thank you to the Sunday School members for decorating for Thanksgiving. The church looked lovely.
We helped to organize the pot luck meal on St. David’s 121st Anniversary Sunday., October Mrs. Sadie MacQuarrie cut the cake with help from Rev. Pelley and a few of the children.
Committee member, Alicia Vink, contacted the Stora Cadets to participate in our Remembrance Day Service. The Royal Canadian Legion Branch 43 provided the colour party, Mark Greencorn played the Last Post and Revillrie, Jean Marie Deveau presented the wreath, President Art Riley read the roll call of the men who served in Port Hastings and District and recited In Flanders Fields. Sarah MacNeil and Tyson Gale read the scripture. We appreciate the Cadets and Legion members participating in our Remembrance Day Service every year.
