It’s Name Tag Sunday! Wear a name tag as a great opportunity to get to know each other within our church community. 

You can find the name tag sticker on your chair in the sanctuary to fill out with a pen, or come a bit earlier before service and utilize our Name Tag Decoration Station. 

If you are interested in discussing today’s message, the Happiness house church is meeting on Monday, on Tuesday our Wilmot group meets in New Hamburg, and on Thursday the Connect house church gathers here at the church. As well, our TGIF group will be meeting on Friday evening. All of these house churches begin at 7:00 pm. If you would like more information about any of these small groups, please check out our website and also reach out to Terry K. at terrykreutzkamp@westheights.org.

RESET RETREAT: VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

We are doing Reset Retreat again this year, March 2-3 (click here for more details).   As part of the event, we have a volunteer ask!

We need people to support this retreat in different ways. We need:

  • Set up: 5-10 people to help set-up after church March 2nd until 3:30pm
  • Greeters/Hall-Monitors: 40 volunteers to do greeters/hall-monitors shifts during the event
  • Treats: 5 people to prepare baked goods and snacks for retreat participants
  • Take Down: 5-8 people to help us take-down and reset the church Tuesday March 4th (9am-12pm OR 3pm-6pm, depending on your availability)

Fill out this form to sign up. This is a great way to connect with others in our community, and to encourage each other’s spiritual journey. If you have any questions, email Sarah Brnjas at reset@westheights.org. If you’re not available to volunteer – that’s okay – we encourage you to come to the drop-in style retreat as a participant! 

COMMUNITY CENTRE COLLECTION

Did you know that around 150 families from our neighbourhood regularly receive assistance from the Neighbourhood Food Program at the Forests Heights Community Centre? In support of this program, we have been asked to collect some high-needs items that they frequently run out of. Over the month of February, we are asking you to consider buying a pack (or two) of diapers (they seem to run out of size 3-6) and baby wipes. Donations can be brought with you on Sundays and left in the area between the front doors. Your donations are a practical way that we can love our neighbours. This just in! We have a donor who is willing to match all of our donations. Let’s do this Westheights! 

We’re Hiring!
