NARAMATA CENTRE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
As you may know, earlier this year, the Naramata CentreBoard of Directors have made the decision to
cease operations of the Centre. A conversation session and the 2015 AGM
for the Naramata Centre Society will be held at Penticton United Church on June
27th. Members, non-members and visitors are welcome. Bookended by worship, this session is intended to
provide an opportunity for talking with one another, healing, discovering
common ground and discerning our way forward together. The conversation session
will begin at 9am PDT. Following a lunch break, the business meeting will begin
at 1pm. Click here
for more information: including how to register for the AGM and how to become a
member of the society.
FOUR SCORE AND TEN YEARS AGO…
On June 10, 2015,the United Church of Canada will celebrate its 90th birthday.
St. David’s will join other United Churches in ringing its church bell at
10:30am local time. It was 10:30 in the morning on June 10, 1925 - at
Mutual Street Arena in Toronto - that the inaugural service of the UCC was
held. Listen for the wonderful call of our bell and let your heart join
generations of United Church-ers in celebrating where we have been, who we are,
and where we are going.
THANK YOU
Thank to Chris and thecrew from CRS Brown Landscaping for keeping the church yard looking so
nice.
