Baptism on Sunday

September 21, 2009 By David Leave a Comment

It looks like everything is set for this Sunday’s baptismal service. We will be meeting at the Best Western on Holiday Inn Drive after our morning service.

We encourage everyone to come out and be a part of this very special day as we witness three of our brothers and sisters making a public proclamation of their decisions to be followers of Jesus of Nazareth.

SUNDAY UPDATE:
This morning was especially awesome. Thanks to everyone who came out to the baptism after the service. It was an incredible turnout and I know that your presence really meant a lot.

If anyone has photos they would like to share please email me here.

Week One Was Great!

September 17, 2009 By David Leave a Comment

Big thanks to everyone who helped out with the Children’s Program last night. Our many days of planning and organization really paid off. The children had a great time (the volume level during game time was intense!) and I know that if I was 8 years old I would come back next week for sure!

The kids (and leaders) learned some new songs, listened and participated in a fun and unique telling of the Israelites journey out of Egypt and across the Red Sea, played some fun and challenging games, and constructed some great shields during craft time. We had a wide range of ages and all were able to participate and enjoy themselves throughout the night.

With the possibility of even more kids attending in the coming weeks we could use even more volunteers to help out. If you are interested in being a part of this meaningful church ministry please speak to Pastor Shawn.

Most importantly, please continue to pray for the kids and leaders as we follow the Holy Spirit in doing all we can to make a meaningful impact on our neighbourhood from week to week.

Canada Day Street Party

June 30, 2008 By David Leave a Comment

Thanks to everyone who came out. We had a fantastic evening out in the street. Our Canada Day block party is always a highlight of our year, and this year with the gorgeous weather and wonderful turnout was no exception. Thanks to everyone who helped out in preparation; set up the roadblocks, cooked and served the food, helped with the fireworks or just came out and added to the wonderful neighbourly atmosphere. I’m already looking forward to next year.

If you will shift your gaze to the right you will see a lovely display of photographs. Right now it is simply displaying pictures that various people have tagged as “Brantford”, but soon I will be setting up a flickr account for the Rawdon community that will display pictures taken at various functions and gatherings of the community.

UPDATE: Group created… http://www.flickr.com/groups/rawdonstreetbaptist/

If you already have a flickr account you can join and begin posting any pictures of Rawdon life that you may have.
