Additional Connection and Support
Praise the Lord - Miriam Bennett will soon be moving out of the unauthorized suite she has been in!
As she prepares for this transition, Miriam could really use some help with packing, as she has limited mobility. If you’re able to lend a hand, please consider reaching out to her directly to arrange a time to stop by. It would be such a meaningful blessing to her during this time.

Movie Night
The Case for Christ by Lee Strobel is a journalistic investigation aimed at debunking the historical reliability of the New Testament and the resurrection of Jesus. As a former atheist, Strobel interviews experts, examining evidence for the empty tomb, eyewitness accounts, and archaeological findings, ultimately concluding that the evidence supports Christian belief.
Everyone welcome. Bring a snack to share and a friend to join in! Enter around the back by the parking lot.

Spring Clean-Up
Let's do a refresh in our church!
We’ve got a great mix of projects to tackle together:
- Refreshing the kitchen cupboards with a good clean-out
- Organizing the Tool/Deep Freezer room
- Sorting ministry supplies so each area is set up to serve well (as ministry leaders see fit)
- Building a picnic table (and figuring out the best way to safely secure it)
- Completing donation runs as needed
There’s something for everyone - thank you for helping care for our space!

Missionary Highlight
Bustin Family - Wycliffe
Helping African communities flourish through mother-tongue scripture and Christ-centred education.
Rob and Kara live in Ethiopia with their three daughters, Madelyn, Charlotte, and Tessa, where they serve with SIL, one of Wycliffe Canada’s key field partners. Since 2013, their family has been part of God’s transforming work, helping people encounter Scripture in the languages they value most.
Rob serves as Strategic Initiatives Coordinator for the SIL Africa Area, Language Services Support team, and as Interim Programs Director for SIL Southern Africa, providing program support to Bible translation, Scripture engagement, and language development projects across Africa. His passion is to equip and mentor national programming staff and to strengthen partnerships with local churches and language communities so that God’s Word takes root and leads to transformation.
Kara serves as the Elementary Principal Team Administrator at Bingham Academy, an international Christian school where their daughters attend. She loves Bingham’s vision, which is to “teach truth, equip generations and change the world for God’s glory”. Through her work, she supports faculty, parents and elementary students from different backgrounds in faith and learning.
Together, Rob and Kara long to see communities across Africa flourish as people encounter God’s Word in the language that speaks to their hearts, and they’re grateful for your prayers and partnership that make this vision possible.
Together, we can equip leaders and communities to experience lasting transformation.

God in My Everything by Ken Shigematsu
"God in My Everything" by Ken Shigematsu is a spiritual guide helping busy people integrate faith into daily life through a "rule of life"—a personal rhythm of spiritual practices.
