Parish Family News

Welcome to New Members. With great pleasure we welcome two new families. Julie Cruickshank and her four children: Donovan, 12; Dominique, 8; Diamond, 2, and baby Ahnah, 8 months, live in Brandon and come to us from the Roman Catholic Church. Wayne and Brenda Angall, their children Soscha , 14, and Merinda, 11, and Wayne's father Basil live in Riverview and were formerly in the Episcopal Church.

Recuperating. Three of our members have had extensive illnesses in the past several months. Christine Richardson's recovery from her recent heart attack has been slow and she asks for our continuing prayers that she may make more progress toward a complete recovery. Eileen Ouazzani and Gloria Zimmerer are also still recuperating and need our prayers. All of these ladies wish to express their thanks for the prayers, cards and other expressions of love and caring given by their fellow parishioners. Also, please remember in your prayers Geoffrey Parker who has had knee problems and is also being treated for glaucoma. Geoff, fortunately, has been able to travel to Washington, D.C. for the opening of the World War II Memorial.
