Castlewood Assisted Living Center's residents can benefit from our christian ministry of service.  here are some volunteer opportunities:  provide rides, students - come in and play instruments or sing, play bingo or do other activities, do fingernails, donate a computer, go with Pastor and assist worship on the 3rd Wed. of the month.  Remember, sunday afternoons are an especially lonely time, stop in and visit (same is true of many elderly persons at home.)

Currently , we have 6 campers going to LO bible camps.

Worship Time
Should it Change?
Stay the Same?

Our church council too keep up the issue of worship time which had been referred to it by the Annual Meeting.  Conversation included the desire to be faithful to our mission to welcome and serve, so we should not only think of our own preference, but should ask, what time might be most inviting to others in our community who may join us?"  Others noted the comfortablesness we have with the current time.  The altermate time voiced was 9:30a.m.

This issue is tabled until March and council members want to hear from members on this.  Please voice your thoughts to Roy, Gareth, Sharon, Dennis, Ernie, Lynn, Rod, Brenda, Jack or Glen.
