PRAYER PARTNER SUPPER
"Pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers
and re-quests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep praying
for all the
Lord's people." Eph. 6:18
February 11, 2018, 5:00p.m. in the Fellowship Hall
All ladies in our congregation that participate in, or would
like to join, the prayer part-
ner ministry at Victory are invited to attend.
Our guest speakers for the evening will be Marilyn Haag and
Brenda Knodel from the
Nurture Pregnancy Support Centre. They will be sharing
information on the centre
whose mission is to demonstrate Christ's love by providing
practical and spiritual aid to
those facing challenges during and after pregnancy. They will
also present infor-
mation on the Kristy Care Fund which financially supports
children facing medical
challenges by aiding in purchasing necessary items such as
specialized wheel chairs.
Offering collected at the supper will go to support these two
important pro-
grams. Any baby care items will also be gratefully accepted by
the centre: diapers,
Q-tips, baby wipes, formula, baby food, toiletries, receiving
blankets, bibs, clothing
and small baby toys. Those wishing to donate, but unable to
attend, can make a do-
nation using the church offering envelopes clearly marked
NURTURE CENTRE and
placed in mailbox #95 to be given to the speakers at the supper.
To request a tax re-
ceipt from the centre for a donation please include your full
name and mailing ad-
dress on the envelope. If you want your donation to go
specifically to the Kristy Care
Fund please indicate so on the memo line of your cheque made out
to the Nurture
Pregnancy Centre or on the offering envelope.
Also that evening Prayer Partners for 2017 will be revealed and
new Prayer Partners to
pray for during 2018 will be chosen by those wishing to
participate. If wishing to par-
ticipate as a prayer partner, but unable to attend, please fill
in a prayer partner infor-
mation sheet, available at the office, and place it into mailbox
#153. A partner will
be chosen for you at the supper and their name and information
sheet will be placed
into your mailbox for the following Sunday.
A sign up sheet will be available for bringing salads and
desserts. Fried chicken will be
provided by the VLW. Plan to attend to enjoy fellowship, learn,
and offer prayer sup-
port to others. Please sign up soon to allow for good planning.
Thank you.
"I urge, then,...that petitions,prayers, intercession and
thanksgiving be made for all people."
1 Timothy 2:1
Why Your Unique Personality Matters in Grief
Do you ever wonder why people grieve differently from you? Are
you ever confused by yours or other people’s response to grief?
Would you like a few tools that would help you understand why
your family members, friends or co-workers grieve differently?
Would you like to be able to communicate more effectively with
those who are grieving in the professional context?
