83,532 families are served,
167,063 hours of labour are saved daily,
and 1,836 more kids attend school daily because of toilets.

Flowers for the Sanctuary

Flowers for the Sanctuary

A small group has been created to provide flowers for the sanctuary every week. We would be delighted to have a couple of more people join us in this flower ministry. Please speak to Yvonne Oldaker or Linda Hughes if you're interested. 
 
Donations may also be made to cover the cost of flowers on future Sundays for an important personal celebration or in memory of a loved one. A sign up book will be placed in the entrance to the church, to indicate which Sunday you'd like to pay for flowers and in whose memory they are given.
 
Please place the money in the offertory plate in an envelope with your name and indicate it is for flowers. This will be added to your year-end tax receipt.  If you would prefer to provide your own flowers please speak to a member of the flower group.
