The Editor

It does not seem possible that Christmas is almost upon us! We have had a very busy summer and fall season and the weeks leading up to Christmas promise to be just as hectic.

You should be receiving this issue of the Contact on the first Sunday of Advent. Tonight at 7 p.m., St. Mark’s children and youth with the help of Al and the choir will again be having a Hanging of the Greens service. This is a wonderful way to start the Christmas season. Hope to see many of you there.

Between publication of this issue and distribution, St. Mark’s will have held a Roast Beef Dinner and the annual Bazaar and Bake Sale. All these events help to keep the church in good financial shape, but more importantly, it brings the congregation together to work for a common cause creating a feeling of comradeship.

The photos in this issue seem to be fewer, but if you go to our Blog, you will see everything that has happened in both churches with many photos in living colour. Thanks to everyone who has made a contribution to the Contact and our online church family album - especially Yvonne Fox, Jim McLean, Arnie MacLean and Ian MacKinnon.
