There will not be services in the Sanctuary for the month of January. As usual, a message and a hymn will be emailed out weekly to keep us connected.
At the recent Council meeting a decision was made that the church donate to the Sherril Mitchell Memorial Bandshell to be built in the Memorial Park in Lyn. We will be purchasing a $200 "stone" to be part of the entry to the bandshell. The inscription on the stone will read "Christ United Church, A Village Church With A Heart For The World".
We would also like to make a cash donation from the church to this project. We invite you to consider making a contribution to the church directed to this project. You can make an etransfer or direct a cheque or cash to the church. Your charitable receipt will come from the church on your yearend giving statement. The total received will be given to the project as a donation from Christ United Church. Please consider making a donation by February 15th.
You are of course welcome to make a personal donation to this project. Details can be found on the Township Website. https://www.ektwp.ca/news/posts/media-release-the-sherril-mitchell-memorial-bandshell/
Questions about the Church donation should be directed to Judy Pearson. For more information about the bandshell project please see Rob Smith.

STEWARDSHIP SECONDS
Second Sunday after Epiphany
In Jesus you are loved and made holy, enriched in many ways: not lacking in any spiritual gift; ready and willing to share generously; called by God,
as disciples of Jesus.
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.
Bee’s Boutique 2026: The cupboards and shelves are sparse from last year’s sales. We gladly appreciate donated items from you, family and friends. Please leave your donations anytime in the Boutique corner. Thank you everyone for supporting the general fund!
