National Day for Truth and Reconciliation: September 30 is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, also known as Orange Shirt Day. Consider taking part of your day on September 30th to reflect on the tragedy of the residential school system and where reconciliation could lead us, either in private meditation or at one of several different events that are happening in the Fredericton region. These include a reconciliation ceremony on the UNB campus from 10 am - 12:30 and the second Psi-te Npomawsuwinuwok (All My People) event held at St. Mary's First Nations Old Reserve from 12 noon until 5 pm. Wear your Orange shirt to service on Sunday September 27.
Book Club: Tuesday October 6 at 1:00 in the parlour. The book is “The Frozen River” by Ariel Lawhon.
Music Director Search Team: We are looking for a third member of the Music Director hiring committee. Due to candidates taking other jobs, the search needs to be restarted this fall. The position description will be modified, but all of the other organizational pieces are already in place. If music is part of what you enjoy about worship at Forest Hill, please consider joining this team. For further information, please check with Karen Flinn or Mary-Anne Blakney.
What are your Favourite Hymns? Please help us provide our Music Supply people with hymns which are familiar to us and which you like to sing. Add your favourites to the list at the back of the church. Just listing titles is fine. We will add the hymnary and the numbers.
Looking for a card for a birthday, or other occasion? Handcrafted cards are available at very reasonable prices from the box at the back of the sanctuary, or on the Library Cart. These cards were handcrafted by some of the women in the church. If you can’t find the box, ask Joan Mitchell to assist you.
Broadview Subscribers: For those of you who are currently subscribed to Broadview, I need to know if you wish to continue your subscription, cost will still be $30.00 which now includes 6 issues per year. For anyone who is not currently a subscriber, there is a copy of the latest editions in the library which are available to borrow that you can make a decision as to whether you would like to sign up for your own copy. Payment will be due in the fall and I will reach out again when payment is needed. If you have questions please contact Diane.
