Knox Connex Youth Youth ages 12 and up are invited to join us as we launch a new youth ministry at Knox!. Next meeting will be on Friday, August 15th 5:30-7:30pm. Meet a Peakes Field for build-your-own subs followed by frisbee golf. Our regular monthly ministry will begin in October and will continue on the first Friday of the month, 6:30pm – 8:30pm, with supper, activities, occasional off-site outings, service opportunities, and faith talks to help us grow in our faith.
Knox is excited to host Vacation Bible Camp again this summer. “Community Helpers Camp” will be held from August 25th to 29th from 9 am to noon for elementary school age children. Thanks to those who have volunteered to help out and we could use a few more volunteers. Please speak with Rev. Heather for more information. We’re also collecting some items for crafts, including: clean egg cartons, popsicle sticks, peanut-free cookies, fruit, and juice boxes for snack time.
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.
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.
The BUC-Knox Refugee Partnership is pleased to announce that the fundraising goal to sponsor the Janbali Family has been met! Thank you to everyone for your generosity and prayers. We continue to await an arrival date for the family, which could still be several months away.
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.
