BEECHVILLE, LAKESIDE TIMBERLEA SCHOOL BREAKFAST PROGRAM. On Sunday September 29 we will begin our Breakfast Bucket for the new school year.  We began this OUTREACH PROGRAM in January of 2011 and St. Andrews has been more than generous in their support of this very worthwhile project.  Many children are benefiting from our monetary donations to the “BUCKET” each month.  Equipment has been purchased for their “Grab & Go” program and healthy snacks are often freshly-prepared on the school premises.  We will continue this outreach on the last Sunday of each month at both the 9:00 and 10:30 services.  “YOUR SPARE CHANGE CAN ADD UP TO A BIG CHANGE IN A STUDENT’S LIFE”.

ONGOING NOTICES

PWRDF – The Primate’s World Relief and Development Fund acts on behalf of the Anglican Church of Canada to provide people around the globe with the ways and means to “help them help themselves”. Information and envelopes are available at the back of the church should you wish to contribute to this worthy ministry.

RECTOR’S OFFICE MEMORIALS – Memorial donations towards the construction costs of the Rector’s office are now being received.  Donations in the amount of $110.00 ($100 plus $10 engraving) will allow contributors to place a memorial on a plaque to be located outside the office.  There are twenty-four spaces for memorials.  Once all spaces have been filled we will dedicate the office in memory of those identified on the plaque.  If you wish to make a donation, please see either Rev. Mike or Rev. Judie.  Thank you for your generosity

CAMPBELL SOUP LABELS AND POSTAGE STAMPS – Thank you for your continuing support of two ACW projects:  Postage stamps and Campbell’s soup labels.  The requirement for stamps have been changed:  They no longer have to have ¼” margin of envelope around them; simply tear most of the envelope away, being careful not to tear the stamp.  The soup labels have to be complete and in one piece; that is, with no staples or Scotch tape.

FOOD BANK – The St. Marguerite Bourgeoys Food Bank is always in need of canned fruit, canned meat, pasta, peanut butter, jam, crackers and pudding.  They are currently running short on the following food items:  boxes of cereal, cookies, and jello. Your ongoing support is greatly appreciated.
