Church Membership: Are you thinking about taking the next step in your journey of faith? Have you ever considered making a public profession of your faith by officially joining the church? In a day-and-age when people are becoming less and less willing to officially join things (political parties, social clubs, etc.), joining the church has certainly become a counter-cultural statement – to clearly say “This is where I belong and this is what I believe.” If you are curious about what this might look like, please speak with Rev Brad to discuss with you both what it means and what it entails!

The 25 voice Abegweit Chamber Singers will be presenting its first ever concert programme at SPC on Fri., May 29 at 7:30 p.m. The group was formed in Feb. of this year with the aim of bringing singers from various Island communities together, to foster unity and peace through song. The choir is under the direction of Ruth Ann Read-Clay, with pianist Ellen Davis. The programme is a celebration of our country and its people. Included are folksong arrangements from the east to the west coasts. The instrumental quartet, TSSK, will be performing, and special guest is PEI composer, Dr. Terry Pratt. Admission is by donation.
SPC CONNECTION CORNER Over the past few weeks, we have been engaging in some social time after our worship service. Folks have been connecting with one another, acquainting and reacquainting, sharing stores and have engaging conversations while enjoying some refreshments. It’s been a great way to check in with our church family and make everyone feel welcome. If you are interested in supporting this ministry, we are welcoming people to assist with providing refreshments, setting up the corner and tidying up afterwards. We invite you to sign up on the sheet in the lobby or check with one of the organizers serving there. Many thanks to everyone!
By receiving peoples’ gifts each week, worshipers are given an opportunity to contribute to the ministry that Christ does in and through our church family. We are able to accept etransfers for general offering or for any event we hold.
Etransfers may be sent to summersidepresbyterian@gmail.com which is set up for auto deposit. Please add a message in the note section of the transfer to indicate your name and what the amount is for. All donations will be added to your annual givings receipt.
Have you signed up to receive emails from the church? It’s a quick and easy way to stay connected with your church family! Speak to Rev. Brad or our church administrator Cheri for more information
