Prayers - For Tintern's prayer list, check out our website www.tinternchurchofchrist.ca. The "Prayer Hub" button (top right corner or click here) is where you will find our list of prayers. You can also add prayers.
Volunteers Needed - We are looking for a volunteer A/V coordiator who can organize training for our teen and preteen volunteers as well as some oversight of the equipment at the back of the auditorium. Contact Noel if you would like to contribute in this way in 2024!
Praise Team Binders - Attention Tintern artists. We are in the process of updating the praise team binders and hope to have printed copies available in the new year. We are looking for someone to provide a drawing for the cover page. It needs to be black line art. The lines need to be dark/heavy as we will be scanning and printing the art for the cover page. If you are interested please speak to Noel or Margaret.
Giving More in 2024 - Thank you to everyone who has donated so far! Keep bringing in your non-perishables.
Boxes - If you have any medium to large size boxes that we could use to transport the non-perishable items that we collect we could use those boxes. Bring them to the building and Margaret will store them until they are used. Thanks.
New for 2024 - Intergenerational Midweek Bible Study - Yesterday we tried an exciting new way of studying the Bible together that we are going to do the next several weeks. Our kids in Kindergarten up to Grade 8 will have an opportunity to share a Bible story with the adult class after which we will have a chance to ask each other questions and do some follow up activities. It is a chance for us to help each other learn about God and learn about the kids in our congregation. Contact Noel for more details.
February Friday Night Connect - We are looking for a host for February's FNC. It will be on February 9 from 7-9pm. If you're interested, please see Megan.

The Faham Katan Family - Update: Moamar’s surgery is scheduled for Monday, January 15. Please pray for Samia, Moamar and the family as they deal with a lot of change for their family. Pray for Raneem as she settles in to living at Bethesda. Pray for a good living situation for her. Pray for healing for Moamar's back after his surgery. Perhaps you could visit the family and provide some encouragement firsthand. Contact Roger Perry or Noel if you would like to help out.
Micah 6 Trip - This year's Micah 6 trip will be May 2 - 5. Anyone from the congregation is welcome to join. More information to come.
