Table Talk Conversations can be powerful. They can evoke hope, inspire dreams, and challenge opinions. Table Talk will be a safe space for conversations over a pot-luck meal when we will examine ideas of faith in our current culture, especially what it means to be “Christian”. Table Talk will be held at 6pm on the 2nd Wednesday of each month. Next conversation will take place on December 10th.

Congregational Breakfast will be held on Saturday, Dec  6th at 9 am. If planning on attending, please jot your name down on the sign up sheets found in the Foyer and Coffee Room, that way the organizers can prepare accordingly. The feature gust speaker will be Marc Baudendistel from Tea on the 45th.

Bracebridge’s Out of the Cold program offers hot meals, produce, and toiletries on Tuesdays and Thursdays. This ministry is based out of Bracebridge United Church but is run by volunteers from several churches and community groups. Volunteers assist in the kitchen with meal preparation or help with set up/serving/clean up. Please see Rev. Heather if you’d like to help out.

Help choose the songs we sing at Knox! You’re invited to write down your hymn requests in the purple binder at the back of the sanctuary and our Worship Planning Committee will endeavour to include your suggestions in our coming worship services.
