Elder Affirmation Bible - Recently we gave each of the elders a new Bible and you are all invited to sign your name in each. In addition, you are welcome to write in you elder’s specific Bible a specific verse that is your family verse, or your verse of the year, or a meaningful verse to you or your family. You are invited to highlight that verse in your elder’s Bible with your name beside it. The bibles are in the front corner of the auditorium. If you have any questions, please contact Angela Kanellopolous

World Water Day - On March 22, it's World Water Day, and we're taking action to demonstrate Christ's love and end the global water crisis. With your help, we can make an even greater impact!
The statistics are staggering: 771 million people still thirst for safe water, and millions more go unreached with the gospel of Jesus Christ. People suffer daily in the 17 countries we work in across the globe. That's why we need everyone rooted as one to end this crisis.
With just one week until World Water Day, we need your help now more than ever. Together, we can quench more thirst, help more churches thrive, heal the sick, empower more women and children, and unite more people through Christ's love.
The foundations of our work are strong, and through our global Christian community, we can make them even stronger. Join us this World Water Day and take root in our efforts to make a difference. Please donate today.
We are so grateful for your support to bring water, for life, in Jesus' name to the world! – Your friends at Living Water International

Niagara Life Centre - We get it. March can be frustrating. Yet this time of year is a perfect message for us to hold on and never give up because spring will come and life will get warmer.
Just like March our lives are often a mix of good and bad. Sometimes things are going great and we feel like we’re thriving, and other times we are struggling and can’t seem to catch a break. It’s hard to be grateful when life’s a mess. It’s easy to despair when we can’t see the end of the the pain…
Whatever you may be going through remember - there will always come a springtime. Life will get better and we are here to walk with you through it. That’s what NLC is all about, offering Help, Hope, and Healing to our community.
March is a hard time, but it’s also a beautiful time.
A beautiful reminder of the life God’s brings in springtime.
