STEWARDSHIP SECONDS
Sixth Sunday of Easter
Stewardship is a lifelong journey, and we all have much to contribute on the trek.


Remembering Book:  There is a book,  kept in Fellowship Hall, that

you can write a note in remembering someone from now or long ago.  The donation

envelopes are in the pews in the sanctuary and the donation goes to the general fund.  If you want to give it in at the office I will write in the book for you and get your donation processed.


Village Pump Café:  Open Tuesday mornings from 09:00 to 10:30.  Stop by for coffee, tea, sweets and of course conversation. The boutique is open and there are plenty of books

to browse through.


Prayer Quilts for Students:  If you have a relative going off to university or college in the fall and they would like to receive a prayer quilt please contact Brenda Cartwright or Liz Healy. Deadline for submission is May 31, 2026. 


​​Church Photo Albums:  They have been placed in the cupboard at the back of Fellowship Hall.  Please take the time to enjoy looking through them and all the old memories that will come alive.

Cornhole Tournament:  Winnie Kelly and Liz Healy will be hosting a Cornhole Tournament evening on Wednesday May 13th at 6:30 pm. In Fellowship Hall.  There is a sign-up sheet on the Bulletin Board. Treats are welcome that evening if you wish to bring something. Coffee and tea will be available.

Directory Photos:  The first session of photos for the directory will be done after church on May 17th. Heather Murdock and Fay Simpson will be taking the photos. Please see LeeAnn Irwin or Liz Healy for permission sheets.

Our annual group church photo will be held on June 7th following the church service. It is our hope to have as many people as possible here that day!

The Big Give will be held on June 6th here at Christ United Church in Lyn from 8:00 am to 11:30 am. Drop off of items will take place on Thursday June 4th from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm and June 5th from Noon to 6:00 pm. Please note that only items in good working order, clean clothing and gently used household items will be accepted. Please no cracked, chipped or broken dishes. Too many items last year had to be taken to waste disposal. We are in need of volunteers to sort, work in the kitchen and outside that day. We would also appreciate the donation of muffins or cut up fruit for that day. If you can help in any way, please contact Liz Healy healy3@cogeco.ca 613-345-5747

​​Tim Hallman:  Will be the musician at Half Moon Bay on June 28, 2026 at 4:00 p.m.  Meet a boat at the PUC dock in Gananoque at 3:00 p.m. for a free ride.

May calendar winner was #19 Ron Hoare happily taking home a man’s gift basket.  A new May calendar is ready for your toonies. Prize is a large picnic basket with everything needed for your summer picnics (minus the food and refreshments)!  Thank you everyone.
