AM -- Worship Service
This morning we have a guest preacher from Cambridge;
Dr. Aubrey Botha. This will be the second time Pastor Aubrey has opened God’s
Word for us. Our society holds such a high view of independence – it is almost
equated with Freedom. Pastor Aubrey is going to tell us about God’s version of
Freedom! | Church

that she be able to add two weeks of vacation to the end of her leave of absence,
so she will now return on August 5. Our Worship Coordinator, David Locke, will
be working with Pastor Joan to line up preaching for these additional two weeks.

lunch, mug and chair. A Mountain of
Pennies: A Mountain of Hope
I sure wish we could find out how many pennies
we collected at ClearView Kids Camp. Hmmmm? I wonder if there are some kids who
could come in and do a count for me on Friday July 25th from 10 am until we are
done? I could probably scare up a pizza or two. If you are interested in counting
pennies (we are not rolling them yet because we want to keep building the mountain)
give me a call or send me an e-mail. Jacqui Cornelisse — Tel:905 829 2242.
Pennies for AIDS
Don’t forget to save up
your pennies kids and bring them in anytime to build our mountain of hope to fight
against AIDS in Africa, Asia and Latin America. DUNAMIS
Oops.
Last week’s bulletin announcement indicated that Dunamis was coming to ClearView
this fall. It was supposed to read - DUNAMIS COMING TO CLEARVIEW JANUARY, 2009.
But you can still check out www.dunamisfellowshipcanada.org
or speak to Helena or Jacqui for more info. Come
Celebrate with Us!
