What’s Happening?
Office Hours: Monday to Friday, 9 – 12 noon.
Welcome to our April 28th church service.
Scripture reading this week is Acts 8:26-40
Questions to reflect on:
Philip is called to take the road less travelled. What does this mean; literally and metaphorically? Where might this road lead today? What is your impression of the Ethiopian official? What might surprise you about him?
How do you feel about speaking about your faith…to a friend…to a stranger?
How did Philip feel? What made it easier for him?
How would you describe the example of evangelism Philip brings?
What has God…your faith…done for you? What is it about faith that brings you joy?
Sign-up sheets are on the Welcome Table and the bulletin board in the Friendship Room.
On April 19th, the annual ‘Good Neighbour Award’ event was held at Woodroffe United Church.
This year, Chandra Pasma, the Ottawa West-Nepean MPP who inspired and organized this annual event, presented the awards to a number of outstanding community members. This was the second year of this event.
During the presentation ceremony, Ottawa City Councillors Theresa Kavanagh and Sean Devine also praised the award recipients for their generosity and community spirit.
Typically, only individuals have received the award. But this year there was an exception. City View’s congregation received the award for their generosity and concern for vulnerable members of society by sharing space in their church with the Caldwell Family Centre Food Bank.
On behalf of the congregation, Harry Bender accepted the award.
