First reading and Psalm
Acts 5:27-32
Psalm 118:14-29

We grieve today the death of Hilliard "Boots" Cooper who passed away at the age of 90.

Boots was a member of the 8am community for many years until health issues kept him away. 

He still loved to make it out to Simple Suppers and special events to spend time with his church family.  

The Edmonton Grandmothers, including several members of the local Christian community, will hold their annual Fabulous Fabric Frenzy and More Sale on Saturday, April 26, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., at Strathearn United Church, 8510 - 95 Ave NW, Edmonton. There will be a selection of fabric, yarn, notions and craft supplies. This will be our only fabric sale this year - we hope to see you there!!! An admission of $2 (cash only) and purchases (cash, credit card, or debit card) support grandmothers in sub-Saharan Africa raising their grandchildren due to the AIDS pandemic.

Bishop Stephen London is pleased to announce his intention to ordain, God willing, Mr. Fred Matthews to the Holy Diaconate; and the Rev. Helen Chan Bennett and the Rev. Jordan Giggey to the Sacred Priesthood on Pentecost Sunday, 2025, 7 PM, at All Saints’ Anglican Cathedral, Edmonton. Members of the clergy are invited to vest, the colour is red. All are welcome! *Please note: Additional postulents for ordination may be announced closer to the date.

This past week the Lower Hall has seen both the tile floor and carpeted areas revitalised!!

Many thanks to Randy & Rita for overseeing this process which was long overdue.

The company not only waxed the floor but provided and extra sealant

which should preserve the tiles and make clean up an easier process.

The carpet looks much better although there are a few places that some marks just couldn't be shifted

(after the many years that the carpet has served the space this is not surprising!!)

There are still a couple of tweaks that need to be made; this will take place after Easter.

Thank you to all for your generous donations toward the Easter flowers which adorned our parish this Easter Sunday.

Your thoughtfulness was greatly appreciated.

One remembrance was in memory of Alan & Doreen Rennie.

An updated Parish Directory is the final stages of preparation.

If you would like a copy of the directory, either by email or post,

please contact the office so that this can be arranged.

Any changes throughout the year will be advised by email so that you can keep your copy up to date.

The Hanley Home Group meets on Monday nights, 6:45 - 8:15 pm, at 10735 52 Street.

We discuss scripture, share our lives, and pray for each other. Families are welcome!
