Notice Board
Iona
Announcements
Evangel Hall
Once again we will be hosting
a Sunday evening community dinner and worship
service
at Evangel Hall on Adelaide St. West.
This is an opportunity for every member of our
congregation to share
God’s love with members of their community, as
we prepare, deliver, serve,
and join them in a nutritious meal, and
afterwards,
worship and fellowship with them.
For some, this may be the only time they might
receive
a good dinner, in a relaxed, comfortable and
welcoming setting,
and a chance to worship designed just for them.
Perhaps you remember the Joy we experienced
during our visit
to the Hall last year. Please join us as we
begin to prepare for this event.
We need volunteers to purchase, prepare and
serve food,
drive to and from, and be in fellowship with our
guests during dinner and worship.

New Parish Nurse Joins
the
Tri-Congregational Parish Nursing Ministry
March 2016 |
 |
Margaret Black (right), who began the
Tri-Congregational
Parish Nursing Ministry in 2001, welcomes our
new associate,
Maureen McNeish (left), RN, BScN. Maureen
is very well
qualified for this position as she has completed
all three levels
of the InterChurch Health Ministries Parish
Nursing Program.
In addition she has a post-graduate certificate
in Mental Health Nursing
from the Canadian Nurses’ Association. Maureen
has 3 years
experience as a parish nurse at both an Anglican
and a
Presbyterian church in Toronto, so clearly God
has prepared
her well for the Tri-Congregational Churches!
Marg and
Maureen, who have complementary areas of
expertise,
will be sharing the Parish Nursing pastoral
ministry to
provide the best care for all clients.
As well as volunteering with the
Tri-Congregational Parish
Nursing Ministry, Maureen works full time as a
home care
nurse contracted through the Community Care
Access Centre.
She is also married with two teenage children.
She and her
family have recently moved into our
neighbourhood from
downtown Toronto.
We are blessed indeed to have her on our team.
Please welcome her in true Tri-Congregational
Churches fashion. |
