Sunday School

Our Sunday School program will be starting up again, many thanks to Fil Sotana and Sarah Vinu for taking the initiative in this important ministry.  

The start date for Sunday School is Sunday March 5, 2023.

The general format for Sunday School will include a brief Children’s Focus at the beginning of the service. Sunday School then takes place in the upper hall, returning back to the service towards the conclusion of the Prayer of the People.  

As this is a re-start with some renewed and fresh program material, the Sunday School will be entering a Pilot Period over Lent where there will be opportunity for Fil and Sarah to determine what is working and how this ministry can grow.

Please spread the word among your neighbours and friends who may interested in participating again in Sunday School.  

For more information and registration, please contact Fil at: fil_sotana@hotmail.com or phone, 778-828-4057.  

Fireside Chats with Robin

Our new Rector has set us a task. Father Robin has asked that some parishioners consider hosting a “Fireside Chat” in their homes. These can take place daytime or evening, but are to be kept very simple. If you are interested in hosting one of these chats, or would like to sign up, please let one of the Wardens know or leave a message in the office.  

Prayer Requests to the Prayer Circle 

please be in touch with Judy Nicholson who will receive and forward your prayer requests to the prayer circle.  If you do not have her contact details, please send an email to the office email address and it will be passed on to her for distribution.  

Altar Flowers

Please consider providing for the flowers placed on the Altar to the glory of God, in celebration, in thanksgiving, or in memory of loved ones.  The cost is usually in the $40 - $50 range. Contact Heather Herd for details.  You may make your donation by cheque made out to St. Helen's Anglican Church and send it in the mail or leave it in the offering plate on a Sunday or by Interac e-Transfer. The email address to transfer electronically is: giving2sthelen@gmail.com
