A WEEK IN PICTURES
Great day at Beulah yesterday. Thirty-seven pianos – yes, 37 – for a service of hymn singing centered on the missionaries of our district serving around the world. This included video greetings, written greetings and an in person presentation from our missionaries. Deep appreciation is expressed to Dan and Edie Mullen, Dwight and Carol Mullen and all of the others who helped to make the morning a memory-maker for the circa 500 in attendance. More than $7000 was raised to top off the needed support for Dawn Wheaton who just arrived in Haiti as an instructor in the School of Nursing connected with our hospital on La Gonave.
A Great picture from last Sundays’ baptism at Halifax Deep Water – joy, freedom, new life!
Kings Church prepared 500 well-filled backpacks for their Every Child Initiative. Amazing!
– “Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world….”
Peter and Kathy Hayes are settling in to life In Cambodia and worshipping with our church there – “Go and make disciples.”
Nathan Maskery led a group of students leaders from Kingswood in a retreat on Grand Manan last week that included a trip over to Wood Island, which has no permanent residences and is home to the last Reformed Baptist Church in Canada – heritage is a gift of high value.
Pastor Scott Prime and the staff of Kentville New Hope at a staff retreat last week. Big question – does Scott have a dress shirt with French cuffs, cuff links and neck tie on under that suit????
Another side of New Hope with a great baptism last week – onward and upward!
