We will gather at Providence on Aug. 14th as we will not be having a service at Trinity on that date. Please bring a lawn chair as the sanctuary is quite small. There will be a speaker outside. This has been decided by council and we appreciate the invitation. This will be a great opportunity to enjoy the connection of Trinity and Providence churches.
Prayer Request and Pastoral Care
If you have a prayer request, please call the church office at (705)738-5135 and we will pass your request through to our active Prayer Circle and Pastoral Care Teams.
