Village of Hope - September is Hunger Action Month every year. It is a nationwide campaign dedicated to raising awareness about hunger and taking action to address food insecurity. We're grateful for the recognition of the work we do in Lincoln to alleviate food insecurity at Village of Hope Niagara. Your donations of food and/or funds are appreciated and make possible the work that we do. In our community, it's estimated 1 in 6 among our neighbours (1 in 5 children) are going without each month, - skipping meals, and missing nutrition. When children, seniors, whole families in our community are affected, we're all impacted. Donors of food or funds are appreciated always, but on Saturdays Sept 16 and 23, donors will receive a special gift of thanks from us to you.

Niagara Life Centre - See below for the fall newsletter.

Compassion Canada - With the holiday season coming up, here is one way that you can help impact children and families in poverty around the word.

Service Sunday Oct 1 

(9 am - 11:30am)

We're looking forward to our Service Sunday on Sunday October 1st. We're inviting everyone to find some kind of service that you and your family can do to help someone in your neighborhood or your community.
  • Maybe you can clean up a park near your home or help a neighbour with some chores.
  • Maybe you can visit someone in Long Term Care or someone that has difficulty coming to worship service.
  • Maybe you can sign up to join one of the projects someone else at Tintern is doing.
  • Maybe you can support all of our projects by spending some time in prayer that Sunday, praying for each project and each person by name.
We will be serving in our community on Sun Oct. 1st from 9am -11:30am and then gathering at the church building for lunch any time after 12pm. All food and drink is provided.

If you have a project you would like some help with email Margaret with the details and we'll add you to our project list on the white board in the auditorium.

Please let us know what your doing to be a part of Service Sunday so we can add you to the list so our prayer warriors can pray for you.

Next week we will send out a questionnaire in order to count up  how many people will be joining us for lunch.  If you have any questions reach out to Noel, Megan or Margaret.
