COOP'S SCOOPS
To get a sense of what inspires Rev. Judie to write her weekly Coop's Scoops we asked her! The answer may spur you on to read this week's blog. "Writing them has helped me to concentrate more on those things that are lovely, just, of good report, compassionate, kind, and true. It is my prayer that reading them may help you find peace in the same way!"
Read the latest weekly Coop's Scoop...you'll be glad you did. That's a promise!
Winter Service Schedule: Sundays at 10:30am.
Join our welcoming community at 10:30 am this Sunday December 14th via zoom at Christ Church Windermere.
Regular late fall/winter season Services with incumbent Rev Judie Cooper are held at Mockridge Hall (little white cottage beside the Church) last about an hour and are followed by treats and hearty conversation. Zoom service option has resumed so please let us know if you would like to sign up for this option. Not on our email list? Scroll below to sign up.
Please note that if the weather report indicates treacherous driving, a notice regarding ZOOM instead of in-person will come to all with the zoom link and bulletin mail out on Saturday. We will err on the side of caution always. Worship we shall, just in what form and place will be evident each Saturday.
Upcoming News Bits .
* A hardy group drove out to our church last Sunday on some tricky snowy roads. We had a wonderful service....great singing in our smaller space....good friends on zoom.... Please just be sure to check your Saturday email which will let you know if we believe travel is unsafe and will be doing only zoom. Always take care!
* Lots of gifts donated to support our friends and neighbours who receive help from the Ontario Addiction Treatment Centre in Bracebridge! Wonderful new things to put smiles on a several dozen faces for Christmas. Two staffers had lunch with us at Jinny's home ( great thanks) and shared their love and their concerns for and about people with addictions. People just like us....could "be" us... all people beloved by God and supported with joy by all of us at Christ Church.
* We also donated at least 50 gifts for children "shopping" for gifts for their parents in our local communities.
