World Food Day (Oct. 16) . . . Hunger finds families when they are facing challenges like poverty, conflict, climate change and illness. Globally, hunger burdens over 800 million people—Rosa Martinez from Nicaragua was one of them. The effects of climate change made it difficult for Rosa to predict when to plant her crops. When she did, irregular rainfall ruined what little food she’d grown. Through a sustainable agriculture project supported by Canadian Foodgrains Bank, PWS&D helped Rosa learn to store water, grow new plant varieties and start seedlings in cups for better plant growth. Because of what she’s learned, Rosa is growing more food for her family. A sustainable source of food opens the door to abundant life.

PWS&D Is Working For Zero Hunger.

THE HEIDELBERG CATECHISM

Q. #115 No one in this life can obey the Ten Commandments perfectly: why then does God want them preached so pointedly? A. First, so that the longer we live the more we may come to know our sinfulness and the more eagerly look to Christ for forgiveness of sins and righteousness. Second, so that, while praying to God for the grace of the Holy Spirit, we may never stop striving to be renewed more and more after

God’s image, until after this life we reach our goal: perfection.

Prayer Changes Things!

To keep the congregation apprised of our on-going financial situation, as Church Treasurer, I would like to note that as of the end of September, our revenue for 2018 was $86,260 while our expenses have been $110,360 resulting in a deficit of $24,100. To offset our deficit, a GIC of $10,000 has been cashed and $5,850 was utilized from designated funds reducing the 2018 debt to $8,250 with three months to go. Spencer Hutchison, Church Treasurer.
