Here’s “The Scoop” for this week.
 

CENTRAL QUEEN’S FUNERAL CO-OP ANNUAL MEETING

The Central Queen’s Funeral Co-op Annual Meeting will be held tomorrow, April 18, 2026 in the funeral home at 2538 Glasgow Road in New Glasgow.  

There will be an open House from 1:00 – 2:00 p.m with the meeting beginning at 2:00 p.m.

Bible Study
There will be a three week session on the book of Ruth beginning Wednesday, April 22 at 7 p.m. in Hunter River.
All are Welcome.
Visibility Ideas
After the Annual Meetings we talked about projects the charge could carry out as fundraisers and to raise visibility in the community.
Some suggestions that have been made are:
– Host a quilt show in co-operation with a quilting group
– A tea (possibly in conjunction with the quilt show)
– A presentation of the history of the church buildings and surrounding communities
– A craft sale
It has also been suggested that we might work in partnership with another community group.
We could have a special service in which we give thanks for and pray for the first responders, health care workers and teachers in our communities.
 
Any and all ideas are welcome, and if you see how you might help with one of these projects, please let us know.
 
Favourite Hymn Selections 
Pick a hymn that speaks to your heart, or is a favourite, then pass along your selection to Rev Cheryl by writing down the title and which congregation, then leave it in the offering plate.  When it best fits with the scriptures it will be sung that Sunday in that church.
Prayer Time
Prayer Time at Glasgow Road Church Hall Monday mornings at 9:00 a.m.

All are Welcome!
