URGENT Male Counsellors needed
Male Counsellors needed for Junior Camp at Hills of Peace
Canada West Mission is in great need of male counsellors for Hills of Peace Junior Camp.
Without enough male counselors, the boys program will be at risk of being cancelled.
If you are able to help us out or know of someone who might be willing, please contact Lisa Neudorf lisa@communityofchrist.ca . Staff need to be an approved Registered Youth Worker (or eligible to become RYW before camp).
Junior Camp “God Loves ME Inside Out” Hills of Peace Campground
Saturday, July 15 – 2:00 pm (staff arrives Friday evening) to Wednesday, July 19 – 11:30 a. For campers who have finished grade two through grade five/six.

Chilliwack Garage Sale Success!
We had a great turnout for the Chilliwack garage sale this spring. Our congregation raised $3800 and change for World Accord, Chilliwack Supportive Housing, and Samish Island Campground. Many thanks to all who helped by baking, manning the kitchen, taking money, stocking the tables, carrying things for people and bringing goods from friends, family and neighbours. It took great team work to do all of this.
Big thanks to all who came and bought "stuff." My junk…your treasure.
See you in October!
