After surviving the coldest February in at least the last 35 years, if not ever, it was a joy to welcome the much warmer first days of March. Hopefully, Old Cold Man Winter will go out with a whimper and not a bang as we celebrate Lent and the lengthening days of spring. Our Christian Education Committee continues to be busy supporting different groups of our congregation as well as those who use our church for their gatherings. We would like to share in a review of recent activities and those to come in the next few months.
Our Church has been the sponsor of the 96th Ottawa Scouts for many years and as a member of the group committee, I can say it is a fabulous group that is thriving. The recent Scout Guide Service on February 22nd (Baden-Powell’s actual birthday!), was a joy to watch as each beaver, cub and scout told jokes, sang songs or did a skit. Remember, at campfires, we do cheers - some would say that they are grrrrrrrr-ate!
The Library Sub-committee ensures our library is stocked with interesting and insightful books for children and adults alike. I encourage you to check on a regular basis to see if there is something that catches your attention. Elsewhere in this issue librarian Don Mutch notes 2 new books.
Speaking of Easter, as the children learn about its significance, I am sure many of them are also thinking of the impending visit by the Easter Bunny! As a parent I always marvel at the hiding places the Easter Bunny chooses to hide goodies. Easter is not just one day (but the Easter Bunny only comes once!) but a season of celebration that extends 50 days until Pentecost, which will bring us very close to the end of the Church School year.
It is hard to imagine at this time, but we are already thinking about the end of the Church School year. As a celebration of its end, the Christian Education Committee will be planning games for the school’s year-end barbecue.
Like many committees, it takes a lot of dedicated people and volunteers to make things happen. These people include the committee and sub-committee members, those leading morning reflection groups, the Church School teachers, the Toddler Room volunteers, a dedicated Church School Co-ordinator, and, of course, the children. We are blessed to have them all!
