BROADVIEW MAGAZINE UPDATE
The Stewardship and Finance committee has been looking for ways to trim expenses. They brought forward a motion, which passed at council, that Thamesview no longer purchase subscriptions to Broadview (formerly the United Church Observer) for members of the congregation. The church was budgeting approximately $1500 for this yearly subscription. Broadview has recently rebranded itself to appeal to a larger audience from different religions and backgrounds. If people would like to continue to receive this publication that can subscribe at https://broadview.org/. |

FUN, EASY, HEALTHY & AFFORDABLE!   Labyrinth Walks Avondale United Church (194 Avondale Avenue, Stratford) – would like to invite you to come and explore a labyrinth. Labyrinths date back over 4,000 years and appear in many different cultures. It is a walking tool for reflection. It can be seen as a metaphor for life. Each walk will begin with a brief introduction followed by an opportunity to walk a 40-foot Chartres-style canvas labyrinth in Fellowship Hall. Tools to further your meditative experience will be available as well. If you are needing a place of peace and a time to pause amidst the busyness of life – come for one or all of the walks. All are welcome. Friday October 25th at 7 pm Friday November 8 at 2 pm and 7 pm Friday November 29th at 7 pm For more information call: 519-271-7946 lesliewpeace@gmail.com
