Newsletter: September is wrapping up, and we still have lots going on!
We’re nearing the end of September already, and there is still so much in store for us! The Venerable Andrew Halladay is away until later on Tuesday, September 24th, with The Reverend Peter Smyth presiding this Sunday for the 18th after Pentecost services.
This week, Prayer Shawl Knitting Group is back on. Lorraine will be in touch with the regulars, and all are welcome to join (more info below). If you haven’t already, it’s not too late to sign up for the Retreat: Everyday Reconciliation on Saturday, September 28th, followed by Evening Prayer (1:30 to 4:30pm). Check the office windows on your way in…
For next week’s 10am Picnic Eucharist, come prepared for battle with a toy sword, nerf gun, and/or pool noodle for St Michael & All Angels!

The PWRDF Board is committed to playing a key role to raise $65,000 to mark PWRDF’s 65 years of programming and partnership, including a commitment to support refugees and displaced people.

As always, please let me know if you or anyone you know would like a visit from the clergy!
