SUMMARY:Lent Book Study
DESCRIPTION:WEDNESDAYS AT 7:00PM  |  Beginning FEBRUARY 24 \nENTERING THE PASSION OF JESUS: A Beginner’s Guide to Holy Week\nby Amy-Jill Levine \nWe’re joining Presbyterians from across Canada to study this book during Lent. Each Wednesday evening at 7:00 pm we will connect via Zoom.  Everyone is welcome!  Details on how to connect are in the weekly eNewsletter or by emailing Rev. Gale: revgalemacdonald@gmail.com \nYou’ll need to buy a copy of the book.  It is available for e-readers and through various book sellers\, including Good Books on Kerr Street in Oakville.  You can  click on the chapter title for each week to be directed to that week’s study guide. \nFebruary 24 – Introduction & Chapter 1 “Jerusalem: Risking Reputation”\nMarch 3 – Chapter 2 “The Temple: Risking Righteous Anger”\nMarch 10 – Chapter 3 “Teachings: Risking Challenge”\nMarch 17 – Chapter 4 “The First Dinner: Risking Rejection”\nMarch 24 – Chapter 5 “The Last Supper: Risking the Loss of Friends”\nMarch 31 – Chapter 6 “Gethsemane: Risking Temptation“ \nABOUT THE BOOK:\nJesus’ final days were full of risk. Every move he made was filled with anticipation\, danger and the potential for great loss or great reward. \nJesus risked his reputation when he entered Jerusalem in a victory parade. He risked his life when he dared to teach in the Temple. His followers risked everything when they left behind their homes or anointed him with costly perfume. We take risks as we read and re-read these stories\, finding new meanings and new challenges. \nIn “Entering the Passion of Jesus: A Beginner’s Guide to Holy Week“\, author\, professor and biblical scholar Amy-Jill Levine explores the biblical texts surrounding the Passion story. She shows us how the text raises ethical and spiritual questions for the reader\, and how we all face risk in our Christian experience. \nThe book supplies a rich and challenging learning experience for people from various stages in the Christian journey. As Levine draws us deep into the history of last days before Jesus’ crucifixion\, you will find yourself pondering allusions to Jewish texts and Roman history that you had not noticed before\, making connections to other stories in the gospels\, and exploring themes that are as relevant today as they were in Jesus’ time.

SUMMARY:Thank You Gift Baskets
DESCRIPTION:This is a very difficult time to be a teacher. For those who have teachers in their families you know how hard they are working to keep our children and grandchildren safe and happy during the pandemic. This is not an easy task and we are so thankful for the work they do. \nWe have a wonderful relationship with the Montessori teachers who work in our building and those who work in the secondary location of White Oaks Montessori on the South Service Road. We want to show them that we value the work they do and that we recognize the extraordinary efforts they have gone to this fall. We will be preparing gift baskets for each of the teachers for Christmas. \nIf you would like to donate to these gift baskets you can send your donation in to the church office or by e-transfer by December 1. Please mark the donation as “teacher baskets” so that we can allocate the funds properly.
