In your church life so far, is there any one person or any event or service or ritual that has influences your life?

I can name a few.

Carolyn McDade - her music and her presence at several events that I attended.

National Task Group - Ministry with Chidren, Youth and Young Teens that I participated in for 2 years.

hi, just wanted to share an event going on this weekend in port credit.  we have gone every year and really enjoy it.  it's called footprints of christmas and it's a night of reinacting the nativity.  it's a wonderful way to start the christmas season.  it's a great event for the family.  just thought i would pass it along :)
