 It's time to strip away what imprisons you and uncover what is real and what is imagined. You need to get honest about your life, your past, and your faith. Expose your true self to God and become who you were created to be. It's time to get Naked.

C'est le moment de lever le voile sur ce qui nous emprisonne.
De faire la diff�rence entre ce qui est r�el et ce qui est le fruit de notre imagination. C'est le moment d'�tre honn�te � propos de notre vie, notre pass� et notre foi.
C'est le moment d'exposer qui nous sommes vraiment � Dieu pour devenir qui nous sommes appel�s � �tre. C'est le moment de se mettre � Nu.
11 septembre - Ken Dyck de "Freedom Session"
18 septembre - Je n'ai pas honte
25 septembre - Je suis accept�
2 octobre - Je suis pur
9 octobre - Je suis aim�
16 octobre - Je suis n� de nouveau

Freedom Session
"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy;
I have come that you may have life, and have it to the full." ~ John 10:10
If you're not experiencing life to the full, then there's a good chance that there is pain, unresolved issues in your life, shame, guilt or fear-and that's what Freedom Session is for. Freedom Session is an effective, Christ-centered 12 Step healing ministry that will lead you on a journey towards the freedom and healing you deserve! It really goes much deeper than recovery - our goal is healing and we are convinced this is God's desire for your life as well.
Freedom Session has been proven effective to help people from every walk of life, every economic level and virtually, every possible area of woundedness; chemical and sexual addiction, sexual and physical abuse/victimization, codependency issues, perfectionism, the scars of divorce, betrayal, abortion trauma, , anger issues, gambling, eating disorders, frozen emotions, same sex attractions and just plain old hurts.
If you can relate to any of these issues or love someone struggling in these areas, we invite you to consider joining a Freedom Session Group starting in the Fall 2011 at River's Edge. For more information about when groups start or about helping to facilitate a group please contact: freedomsession@edger.ca

Community Kitchen
Community Kitchen thanks everyone who has given donations this summer to help feed the poor in our neighborhood through the meals that we serve on Monday and Thursday evenings. We have also appreciated those of you who are stepping up to volunteer. Thank you.
Community Kitchen feeds an average of 110 people a week through the meals they serve. As you can imagine, this requires a lot of food. Recently, an organization decided to donate fresh fruits and vegetables which has been wonderful. The only limitation at this point is that the kitchen doesn't have enough refrigerator space nor freezer space to store all the donated food. We have secured two refrigerators and a freezer for an amazing price of $1150. Would you consider giving a financial gift to help with the purchase? If you want to give a financial gift, you can donate online by using the following link, noting that the gift is for Community Kitchen Fridge and Freezer. CLICK HERE TO DONATE.

Tech-TamonialHello Edgers! My name is Philip and I volunteer on the tech team, serving with you all from the sound board. Just a couple words to let you all know how great it is to serve on the tech team. When I realized that my talents could be used to serve our God, I jumped at the occasion. To me, it is one of the ways I communicate with Him. Before every worship gathering, I ask God to use my talent to make sure the message can be communicated from the artists or the minister to you. Come by and say hi! Philip ParenteauVolunteer Sound Technician (Front of House & Live Stream)

Leadership Changes for our 2011-2012 Gospel Choir season Carol Bernard has resigned as the River's Edge Gospel Choir Director. This is a significant loss for River's Edge Community Church and our Gospel Choir. We are sorry to see Carol step out of this role, but are thankful and rejoice for the years of service and impact both she and Ted have made. We pray God's blessing for Carol and Ted as they make this significant shift. Our Gospel Choir continues to be of importance to our community of faith and a significant part of the Worship and Arts Outreach at River's Edge. We look forward with anticipation to the Fall launch of the 2011-2012 season starting Thursday, September 29. I'm pleased to inform you that Ruben Shaym Brutus will be our new Gospel Choir Director! I'm excited to have Ruben a part of the Worship Arts and Production team. I believe that his contribution and leadership to the River's Edge Gospel Choir will assure us of a great year!
