ONGOING PROGRAMS
Knit & Natter: On Tuesday mornings, at 10am, a group meets with knitting or other
projects, enjoys coffee and nattering together. In the past they have knit shawls for the needy and
little orange sweaters to remember the Residential School children. Their next project is to knit
squares for a quilt. They meet on alternate weeks at May Loudon’s or Jean Lawrence’s
homes—in the garden or by the sea, weather permitting.
​
Wednesday Morning Faith Study Group: (10:30-11:45am):
Lively discussions emerge from the study of faith-related books such as Henri Nouwen's Reaching Out, Anne Lamott's Help, Thanks, Wow, Harold Kushner's The Lord Is My Shepherd, Barbara Brown Taylor's Holy Envy.... Currently (October, 2022) the group is reading and discussing Amy-Jill Levine's Signs and Wonders. Newcomers are welcome! Contact Cathy Sosnowsky, 604-770-4570 or csosnowsky@shaw.ca for more information.
