Links for September 21, 2025

Today is the International Day of Prayer for Peace. Your Social
Justice Collective joins with The World Council of Churches in inviting
everyone to pray using the theme – “God of life, lead us to justice and
peace”. “There’s fresh news each day of injustice, violence and
suffering, and the WCC theme itself is a prayer for peace,” said Jonathan
Frerichs, WCC program executive for peace-building and disarmament.
“It’s an active prayer – a witness to faith, a cry of hope and a pledge to be
disciples for peace together.”

Adopt-A-Hwy clean up next Saturday, 27 September starting at 0900.
Anyone 16 years and older is invited to join in. We meet at the parking
lot in Nova Landing across from Cleve’s Sports Store, near “our” area,
Exit 32, Hwys 7 and 104 interchange. All equipment is supplied. You
just need comfortable clothing appropriate to the weather, work gloves
and waterproof footwear. Note ticks are very active – plan to stay
covered up! This only takes two hours, beautifies our community and
improves the environment. Treats and swag provided! Please talk to
Michèle Ashby after the service or call her at 232-3473, if you are able to
assist and have not already indicated your interest. Thank you!
