Thankful we come together as a community!

Next time you visit the Church Hall, you will notice a beautiful mural (thank you to the art teacher and students at Chambly Academy who painted it!)
If you look closely, you will also see that there are special messages on some of the piano keys (thank you to those of you who have already made a donation to display a message!)
If you would like to give thanks for someone/something significant in your life, you may want to consider having your dedication/special intention inscribed on our community mural.
Yes, this is a fundraising mural (and we give thanks that we are able to maintain our beautiful church building!)
but it is also an opportunity to show a portrait of who we are, when each individual shares of themselves -  and then we all come together and discover who we are as a community - in harmony!
