OPERATIONCHRISTMAS CHILD is a program collecting gift-filled shoeboxes
from caring donors and distributing them to struggling children in the
developing world. The program has brought joy and a powerful message of
hope to over 198 million children so far. Shoeboxes are available in the
Narthex or if you prefer, there is a box for individual donations.
Deadline for contributions is November 15th. Please help make a child
smile.
175th CHURCH ANNIVERSARY Update: The 175th Anniversary committee has a
couple of items that we are requesting from our congregants. We hope to
make this a very special event that will include families of members who
grew up in our church, others who attended but have moved on, basically
anyone who has called Knox home at some point in their lives. Please,
invite anyone who fits these descriptions that you have contact with to
join us for our special weekend of celebrations. The more who attend,
the more meaningful the weekend will be.
There will be a display of historical items in the fellowship hall
during the anniversary weekend. Many will be items that we have at
church already, some will be borrowed from long-time members. If you
have something unique that you think could be added to this display,
please contact Debbie Reed or Deb Rae. We'll let you know if the item
can be used.
Wedding 'Wall of Fame': We would like to create a wall of fame of
people who were married in our church or by one of the ministers here.
If you, your children or grandchildren, a friend or neighbour, or anyone
else you know was married here, please take a photo of their wedding
picture and send by email to Deb Rae at [email protected]. Deb will
get the photos printed and create a display.
For our Saturday October 17th evening meal, we are hoping to have apple
crisp and ice cream for dessert. We are looking for volunteers who are
willing to make and donate a 9 x 13 pan of apple crisp. If you are
willing to do so, please see Debbie Reed or Deb Rae.
Thanks in advance for all your help!
