“Mother’s Day and Baptism
on Christian Family Sunday”
May 13, 2012
“We
remember those who have taught us life’s lessons,
And shared
with us the wonders of faith.”
Staff
of United Church of Canada
This Sixth Sunday of Easter, it’s Mothers
Day and we celebrate Christian Family Sunday with three
baptisms.
We celebrate the mothering nature of God and the joy we
have in our Christian family
with the families of Emily Alicia Haddock, Simon
Michael Hildebrand and Maddison Grace Jacques. Rev.
Johanna will lead us in Worship and her message to us is
called “Abide in Love”. We welcome back soloist, Megan
Hunter, as she sings for the prelude “A Wonderful
World”. The Senior Choir will sing “God Gove Us Those
Who Love Us” by Mary Kay Beall. Friends, family,
acquaintances are always welcome to come along and enjoy
the worship time, fellowship and friendship here at St.
Andrew’s. Consider inviting someone today.

MAY OUTREACH FOCUS
As you know, we will be hosting the

for Humanity Chatham-Kent. Your Outreach Committee and
church Council approved a $2,000 donation of monies
tithed for outreach from the sale of the former Park
Street United Church organ. Our challenge to you
is to try and match this during May. Please
mark your donation on the special line "Habitat". Thank
you.
