Wedding of Carol Eubank and Ted Toppin
Immediately following our Worship Service, we will have a wedding here, which Pastor Eddie will officiate, but will not be live-streamed. The couple are residents of the Milliken community. They have been together for several years, but it has been impressed upon their hearts to join together officially in Holy Matrimony.
As a church, we are going to celebrate their union and commune with them in a time of fellowship in the Gymnasium after the ceremony.
Income Tax Receipts
Our finance team would like to give a friendly reminder that anyone who would like to receive a tax receipt for their financial contributions MUST put all Cheques and Cash in an envelope with FULL NAME AND ADDRESS.
We have received several unlabeled envelopes and without a name and address, there is no way of knowing who has made a contribution. Unlabeled envelopes go directly to the general fund so we ask you to PLEASE label your envelopes before placing them in the offering box.
Memorial Service for Jayden Marie Gray
Jayden Marie Gray is the granddaughter of Ivy Gray. She was born on February 27, 2000, was christened at our church and passed away unexpectedly but peacefully on October 23, 2022. She will be lovingly remembered by her parents, Paul and Jennifer; her two brothers, Jared and Noah; her grandparents, Noel, Ivy, and Jocette; her uncle, David [Charlene]; her aunts, Donna, and Carrie [Colin]; and her cousins, Taylor, Jasmine and Bryce.
