SUMMARY:Strawberry Thanksgiving and Communion – Online
DESCRIPTION:Join us online Wednesday\, September 24th at 10:00-11:30 AM for Strawberry Thanksgiving and Communion\, and take your acknowledgement of Territory to the next level by considering the Spiritual Covenant.  \nMany congregations who have been acknowledging the territory for the past few years are asking what meaningful action they can take to move their acknowledgment from words to actions. You are invited to Strawberry Thanksgiving and Communion\, an online opportunity to begin the conversation about making a spiritual covenant. \nYou’re warmly invited\nto this special event featuring Adrian Jacobs of the Turtle Clan\, Cayuga Nation\, sharing on the Spiritual Covenant—a reflection on land\, relationship\, and reconciliation on Wednesday\, September 24th\, from 10:00-11:30 AM. \nAdrian Jacobs will offer a leadership in this workshop and communion service that will inform and inspire the discernment of churches on any traditional territory who wish to consider concrete action to live into their acknowledgment of territory. The workshop and worship will be grounded in history and scripture\, and will invite you to deeper relationship with the land and the peoples on the land\, and the Creator\, Christ and Spirit. (For more information about the Strawberry Thanksgiving and Communion and the Spiritual Covenant\, see below.) \nThe road to a decision about a faithful action by your community of faith is an ongoing journey. Come prepared to engage and to learn\, and then bring your reflections to your home church for prayerful consideration. \nBread and Juice for Communion\nThis workshop will include an online communion service\, so have your own juice and bread ready. For juice\, you are invited to honour Indigenous tradition with strawberry juice\, a local Indigenous medicine.  If you would like to make strawberry juice\, here is a simple recipe you can use:\nhttps://tworowtimes.com/healthy-roots/jihsodahk-the-leader-of-the-plants/. If you are not able to use strawberry juice\, feel free to bring any fruit juice of your choice. \nRegister in advance for this event:\nhttps://united-church.zoom.us/meeting/register/2BNM7atZRhKNuAGAeO_1nA\nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRead More Here

SUMMARY:WOW UCW Fall Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Please see the attached poster below\, inviting you to sing along with us at our next WOW Regional UCW Gathering on Monday\, October 20\, 2025.  It will be both an in-person and online Gathering.  We hope some of you will gather together with friends to have a watch party – or perhaps I should say a singing party as it is always more fun to sing in a group.  See the poster for further details.  There will be some members from Pine River United Church who travelled on a study tour to Zimbabwe this summer.  They are excited to share their adventures and learnings with you.\n\n\nNext week\, Nancy Lenox and I will be in Mississauga at a retreat centre for the annual National UCW executive meeting.  Approximately 40 women from across Canada will gather to share news about the past year\, and discuss how we as an organization can continue to support each other on our life and faith journeys.  It is always an exciting week.  You are invited to join your sisters across Canada and share in the installation of the new national president and in the final communion service Friday\, September 19 at 9:30 am.  Use the link below:\n\nhttps://united-church.zoom.us/j/82956406085?pwd=U60ig0YKo8lJU8v4d1mabCzJJa0ZWP.1
