How about ideas for 2013-2015, after we've completed the current "Are We Healthy?" theme? We're looking to hear from lots of people and know what you're interested in and passionate about!
As part of its Adult Faith Exploration programme, St. Andrew's Haney United Church (in Maple Ridge, BC) will be inviting people to participate in an 8-week exploration of discipleship, running from Sept. 28/09 to Nov. 23/09.
