Information Session #2 from the Mission & Ministry Group: immediately following worship NEXT SUNDAY June 11 there will be an information session and presentation from the Mission and Ministry (M&M) Focus Group. This meeting will be for information purposes only and will involve a presentation on four theoretical financial scenarios found at the back of the Mission & Ministry Report (link below). A vote on the recommendations will be held at a congregational meeting on Sunday June 25. A zoom link has been circulated via email (same meeting ID and passcode as the previous meeting.

For Pastoral Emergencies, please call the number listed on your pastoral care postcard (available via the church office or on Sundays). This number will also be on the church answering machine and available via the current week's email.

Pastoral Emergency Contact June 15-30: Brenda A at 902-664-4086


Scripture/Announcement Readers Needed for Spring Services: Would you be interested in reading on Sunday Morning? You may sign up on the list on the Circles of Service Board or by calling the Church office. On Thursday afternoon the Church Office will communicate with you and provide you with the specific text(s) you will be asked to read, including the possibility of a selection of modern wisdom in the form of a quote from a current text. A sign-up sheet for scripture/announcement readers for Spring/Summer is on the Circle of Service Board just inside the sanctuary. Scripture readers are still needed for the following Sundays: July 9 & 16



Seniors Fellowship Lunches: This group now meets the THIRD Tuesday of each month at noon. For the final lunch before a summer pause, you are invited to join the "regulars" at Pattersons Restaurant on Tuesday, June 20 at noon. Please contact the church office or speak to Brenda Allen so we can have an idea of how many tables to reserve - rides are available for those who might need them! All seniors welcome!


Prayer Bench Group Subscription: We have purchased a group subscription to Rev. Janice MacLean's "Prayer Bench" for the year, including a number of individual email "retreats" and series. If you are interested in receiving these resources please contact the church office.

Games Night at SUC: On the second Tuesday and third Thursday of the month from 6-8pm, a small group are gathering at SUC to play RPG (role play) and other games. If you are interested in joining this group, please speak with Christy Watts.

Parents and Tots: Parents and Tots meets Thursday Mornings from 9:30am to 11:00am at St Andrew’s Presbyterian Church. There is no charge, and volunteers are present to assist with childcare. Bring your young ones for a time of community, play and fellowship (and a chance to chat with other grownups!).


Cell Phones Needed for Ensemble Moncton: Are you upgrading to a newer model and have a spare phone sitting in a drawer somewhere? Ensemble Moncton provides cellphones to their clients to connect them to services and the community. The clients work closely with the Wellness Navigator at Ensemble to access services in health, justice and social sectors. Funding is very hard to access for cellphone provision because of the harmful assumptions placed on individuals dealing with addictions and substance use. Drop off phones at ENSEMBLE, 80 Weldon Street, Moncton, daily between 8:30 am and 3:30 pm. Phone (506)859-9616 and ask for Ashley if more information is required. Any cell phones (and chargers!) dropped off at the church office will be brought to Moncton by Jennie or Rev. Lloyd.


Thank you to those who have donated cell phones so far. Ensemble will ensure that all data/information is wiped from phones donated before they are distributed.



What's New at Broadview: The United Church magazine has a variety of topical articles on subjects that reflect many of the interests and initiatives of our congregation. Please contact the church office to renew your subscription if you have not already and/or to sign up through our discounted group subscription rate of only $25/year. New subscriptions can be added at anytime of year!
