Are we still remembering the Food Bank ministry when we shop? Next deliveries: St. John’s (19 October); St. Mark’s (26 October); Holy Trinity (16 November)

Vestry notes: The Vestry donation of $1000 for the Ho Medical Clinic has gone to the Synod, plus another $1050 as the latest contribution from individuals. The Vestry is in need of a Treasurer. Archdeacon Laskey will work with the Parish Advisory Committee on a document sketching the shape of future ministry in the parish.

October’s NB Anglican has a thoughtful piece at the end on the advantage of supporting the Food Bank financially rather than with food donations.

Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes are now available in the churches. Thank you for supporting this ministry to children in many parts of the world.

Are you looking for special spiritual nurture? A virtual Christian Ashram is available 6-8 November:  [link]

Remember that there’s a convenient way to get a cheery greeting to someone stuck in hospital. The hospital will deliver it. Check out:  [link]

Please consider benefitting the “Corporation of the Anglican Parish of Richmond” in your will. The parish has received many bequests over the years, without the interest on which we could not make it financially.
