Ebenezer's Connections Committee is looking for new members. Contact the office.
October 12 Offering: Mission Montreal is our second collection for this day. A collaborative effort of Resonate Global Mission, Diaconal Ministries Canada, First CRC Montreal, Classis Eastern Canada, and a partner ministry called Christian Direction. At its heart, Mission Montreal is about equipping and mobilizing Christians and Christian leaders to engage their culture, focusing on church outreach, young adult faith formation, and ministry to the growing immigration population in Montreal.
October 19 Offering: The 2nd offering is for Ministry to the Seafarers parcels. Every year at this time we collect monies for Christmas parcels (gift bags) that are given to the Seafarers that visit the Ministry to the Seafarers centre in Montreal in the month of December. The life of a seafarer is very lonely, often spending months at a time away from family and loved ones, including over Christmas. These parcels show Christ's love, and let them know they are seen, loved, and valued by us. For more info, or if you wish to pack your own parcel, see ministrytoseafarers.org/parcels.
