Vision
Well we have a few things to point out today: 1. Masks will still be required in NS during Phase 5, so when we transition to one service on Oct 10th, we will still be required to wear our masks. 2. Our new mid-week kids program Konnect Play is starting up Oct 6th and will be held at West Highlands School! This has been a dream project for years and it is finally happening! 3. Small Groups are starting to meet in the next week or so, and right now is the best time to join! 4. Don't forget that if we enter Phase 5 on Oct 4th, we will move to one Sunday morning service on Oct 10th and the service will begin at 10:30am! 5. Proof of Vaccination will not be required at our services and programs, as we consider them all to be faith services, which are exempt from the government policy. 6. Baptism Sunday is this Sunday (Oct 3rd!) and you don't want to miss it! 7. We are no longer posting video versions of our sermons online. Our sermons will be made available after Sunday as a Podcast, and we will also be launching a new podcast to help you dig into the sermon, it will be called: God's Word, My Life. You can listen to the podcast on our app, or on most podcast services, just search for Amherst Wesleyan Church! |
Wins
1. We had over 20 show up to the Creation Ministries Seminar last Saturday! There was some great information shared and really got us thinking not only about theology and science, but also about leading our families. 2. A number of our small groups are working to adapt to our restrictions and the needs of their group members. The community and fellowship part of Small Groups is so important to them that they are making the connection a high priority! Small Groups are for EVERYBODY! 3. I spent three days in meetings with The Wesleyan Church of Canada: Church Multiplication and Advancement Team this week. I am part of the team working to get new church locations started in Canada! It was exciting to sit in these meetings and see how things are coming together to start taking ground across Canada! It's also exciting to think about how this team may help us in reaching Northern Nova Scotia someday! |

God has something incredible for us, but we will miss it if we don't keep pushing and growing more and more! 1 Thessalonians 4:1 Don't settle for good enough, keep growing, stretch to be more and more like Jesus.
