This is what people usually look like when they are telling me not to put their photo on my blog.
From St. Hilda’s 50th Anniversary Celebration. More photos to follow.
This particular person tells me that she prays for me a lot.
A friend in St. Hilda’s ANiC flies radio controlled aircraft; he has mounted a miniature video camera in one and taken some aerial footage of St. Hilda’s in Oakville.
No pigeons were harmed in the making of this video, although some tree branches were bent.
Next project: aerial penetration into enemy territory by remote controlled drones; they will be programmed to drop bibles into the Diocese of Niagara Synod next week.
St. Hilda’s, ANiC has a lot of artists in its congregegation. A couple of times per year, the artists put on an Art Show as a community outreach and to raise money for World Vision. The latest Artists for Africa was held on St. Hilda’s front law in June; a percentage of the proceeds will go to World Vision:
Every Friday St. Hilda’s ANiC feeds about 200 schoolchildren; they hear a short gospel message and sometimes they ask for prayer.
Friday was the last Freebie Friday before the summer.
200 hotdogs were served, some wonderful bread from Artisano’s – peanut butter, lots of potato chips, and fruit punch.
Three of the ladies were celebrating their last Freebie Friday as they head off to Western, Waterloo, and Mac next year, and one of the boys is going into the Coast Guard Service.
In the first batch of kids were 4 newcomers who arrived because they heard the words “free hot dogs”. They were stunned at the numbers of their buddies, and the friendliness of it all. They said they would start out with us next September.
The lunch always ends with the phrase, “have a great weekend – and remember that God loves you, Jesus loves you, and we love you, too.”
Every year St. Hilda’s Anglican Church, ANiC has a garage sale where all the items are free. It is an outreach to the community to illustrate the love, grace and salvation of God which is offered to us free through Jesus Christ. For all photos, go here:
