Prayer Requests and Praises:

  •  Our junior age camp has just finished running from July 10 - 15.  Praise God for both children and staff.  Since many to most of the children do not come from families that attend church, please pray that, by the grace and providence of God, the seeds that have been planted will take root and that there will be opportunity for local churches to have effective follow up. 
  • Praise God for the opportunities that we have had to network with other Christians from other churches to reach out to others with the love of Christ.  One of these opportunities included offering a free lunch to high school students once a week.  This got off to a really good start and there is interest in continuing in the fall.  Please pray for direction for further ministry to this age group.  Another opportunity is supporting a town wide youth group.  Pray for those involved, as they take a break for different summer ministries, and then regroup to plan for the fall.
  • Praise God for his faithfulness which includes bringing healing to some individuals, bringing some out of this world, and for meeting the financial needs of the church.
  • We have had several individuals who have been seriously ill or passed away.  We have just received word of my father-in law's passing and the funeral is planned for July 13th in Alberta.  I will be conducting the service.  Pray for those that are sick and grieving.

ECCC NEWSLETTER ~ We need YOU!

 

In an effort to keep our community of churches connected and informed about the various ministries and people of the ECCC, we are hoping to begin (again) an ECCC newsletter. In the past The Messenger was the primary way of communicating the goings on around the Canada Covenant Church.  

 

In an effort to be cost effective and environmentally friendly, we won't be sending out paper copies, but will post the newsletter online and email out instead.*

 

For our trial run we would love to gather submissions on the theme: Fellowship of Believers. This is one of the Covenant Affirmations and was the focus of this year's ECC Annual Meeting.  

 

We welcome your stories, articles, poetry, photographs and anything else you can come up with!

 

Written pieces must be no more than 500 words. Articles or stories exceeding 500 words, must first be approved by Julia Stein, Editor. Please send your submission in .doc format.  

 

Photographs must be sent  in .jpg format.  

 

All submissions are due by August 15, 2011 to CanadaECC@gmail.com  

 

 *We will send printed versions by special request for those who are unable to view the newsletter online.
