Snow Shovelling Program for Seniors available...
|
|
Need help clearing your driveway this winter?
The Snow Go program helps seniors and people with disabilities find a reputable and reliable individual or contractor to clear snow from their private driveway and walkway. The City of Ottawa partners with the Senior Citizens Council and local home support agencies to deliver this winter program.
Eligible low income seniors and persons with disabilities can also apply for the Snow Go Assist Program and receive financial assistance for snow clearing. Approved participants may be reimbursed for 50 per cent of the cost of snow clearing, up to a seasonal maximum of $250. Low income is defined as an annual income of below $25,000 for a single individual and below $32,000 for a household (two or more persons). An Older Adult is considered any person over the age of 60 years.
For more information about the Snow Go and the Snow Go Assist programs, please visit ottawa.ca/snowgo or call 3-1-1.

Special Talents Needed for Advent and Christmas....
|
|
Ticket Takers and Hosts for Tales and Tunes on December 13th:
We have some volunteers signed up but if you can help out when we are there that would be great... we have only 10 minutes to distribute and clean up Apple Cider during intermission so any helpful hands would be great!
Christmas Day:
For the past two years we have had birthday cake/cupcakes for breakfast after the 10am service. If you would be willing to bring a birthday cake for Jesus on Christmas Day please let me know.
Thank you in advance to the many lay administrators, readers, altar guild members, coffee hour leaders, greeters, and many many more who make our Advent and Christmas season happen!

Closing Note...Last night I spent the evening preparing part of the Christmas Eve 'surprise' that the children will receive at the Family Services at Christ Church and St. Johns... it's getting exciting to think about Christmas Eve! I hope you are enjoying your Advent Journey.
Here is a wonderful online Advent Calendar that I am enjoying this season: http://bustedhalo.com/features/advent-calendar-2013
