AGM CELEBRATION!


Check out our new sound desk - thanks to those that helped put it in!
What an exciting fun-filled packed day!!! After our morning service, we were able to celebrate in the afternoon with our Annual General Meeting- and over 130 members attended. And just as exciting was the announcement that all 3 candidates nominated for eldership were accepted. Rob Petty, David J Westaway, and Adrienne Howlett (our first female elder!!) Way to go guys!

Here's an excerpt from one of our evening congregants...

Sunday night was a terrific time of celebration, worship and fellowship. The morning service and AGM set the tone for the day, celebrating the many things happening in the life of the Church and exploring further the vision for the future.

This time of celebration continued into the evening service. It was announced that Mel Hill would be taking up a youth internship in 2010 with the church working with Blake and the whole ministry team. This is an exciting prospect for the Yorkie youth.

We continued in celebration and thanksgiving as we witnessed two special events, the baptism of Drew Mah and the dedication of Tyson Mah. Congratulations to Drew, Hayley and little Tyson.

Tim had us playing with Lego as we explored the way in which each individual has a part to play in the body of Christ. Like a piece of Lego, on our own we are nothing special but when we join with others, as we are designed to do, we complete the masterpiece.

1 Corinthians 12:27 Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.

-E. Drough
