Announcements


Children in worship
Children are encouraged to join us. There is a Sunday School program for them. Toys and colouring sheets are always available for their use. These toys/sheets are found in the "Welcome Children" basket in the entryway(narthex). Some noise is accepted during worship. If children are particularily rambuctious, a "Quiet room" is available to use. The "quiet room" is a sound dampened room with a speaker broadcast so that the youngster can make noise and the caregiver can see and hear the service. Church School takes place in the pastoral care room on the main floor. Church School Teachers and children leave the worship service after the theme exploration time during the hymn.
Powerpoint during the service

Music
Hymns are all accompanied by a piano or organ. Sometimes the hymn is also accompanied with additional instruments (Bass Fiddle, Tuba, Flute, etc.). All hymns are led by a 5-10 member choir. At times the choir pesents an anthem, or a soloist performs special music.
Written Copies of the Sermon
Some people have some hearing problems so appreciate a copy of the sermon to read along with the minister. Printed sermons and large print bulletins are provided to those who request them by our greeters each week. We strive to make this a comfortable environment for everyone. Some people wish to re-read the sermon after the service, so an electronic copy can be sent by the office or a copy can be read on the website.
Hospitality after Service
Everone is invited to the Library for hospitality after the service. Over a cup of coffee/tea/juice and a snack people can visit and talk to their neighbors. This is a good chance to get to know your fellow congregants. Many congregants wear name tags to make connections easier. Join us in the library at the end of the hall for coffee time!
