Midweek Message – October 3
Monday was National Day for Truth and Reconciliation; a holiday for many people. I try not to think of it as a holiday, but more as a day set aside to learn some more about Indigenous History and present day realities.

Worship – This week I am connecting scripture and The Bank of Dave, available to watch on Netflix. The scripture is selected passages from 1 Samuel 16, 17, 18, 19, Ester 2, and Acts 4: 32-37.
