OUR CHURCH FAMILY

*Simon Leenstra is celebrating 85 years today and invites

you to join him for coffee and goodies after the morning service.

He is very thankful to God for His loving faithfulness over the

years and for this church family who continues to bless him in so

many ways. “This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and

be glad in it!” Psalm 118:24

PRAYING FOR OUR CHURCH FAMILY

Sean & Becky Folkerts, Sandra Abma, Neil & Klaaske

deKoning, and Fred & Annica Ollewagen. We pray that

God will bless you and your families in the coming week.

Welcome to Woody Nook FEB 19, 2017

Winter Fun TODAY! with Your Church Family!

Bring your skates, cross country skis, sleds, fishing gear,

snowball makers and other winter gear, so we can all have

a fun-filled afternoon of winter activities at Camp

Silversides on Sunday February 19th, right after church.

We will take care of the snow, ice, hot beverages and

hotdogs. Please also bring some cookies or a dessert to

share! We hope to see you all. The Church life committee:

Russ, Hans, Jack, Joel, Karin, Kayla, Monica.

ALPHA

We're hoping to schedule another session of Alpha, but

we need to know who is interested to determine when

to schedule it. Please let Pastor Neil or Pastor Dayna

know asap if you're interested.

Volunteer Link Needs YOU!

Once again, we are making a call out to the congregation

for people to sign up for Volunteer Link. Many calls have

come in asking for help driving clients to Edmonton or

Calgary and volunteer resources are being exhausted by

the participating churches. If you sign up, your name will be

put on a list of names that we can call if there is need for

drivers, hands to help move clients, or any other helping

hands. Currently, our registered list of volunteers is very

short and we would love to have a larger group of people

that are willing to be called upon. Please call or text Coby

at 403-896-9007 if you are available.

LIVING BETWEEN THE TREES

We hope you are all busy thinking about, planning and making a leaf for the big art project that is underway. We'd love to see one leaf per person or, at the least, one leaf per family! If you do not know what to do, talk to a committee member. A few options: there are some wooden leaves available for you to make into your own unique leaf (paint, etch, attach things, etc.). Also, there is Paverpol available for those who know how to use this paint substance (those who were at the sculpture workshop). Also, if you are finished a leaf, share it with us soon! Pray for Karen Tamminga-Paton as she begins work on the painting of the trees. -Your art team: Klaaske, Karissa, Dayna, Edith.

LIVING BETWEEN THE TREES—What kind of glue can you use?

We’ve had a lot of questions about adhesives. Here’s what Karen told us: - hot glue sticks are great for a while but the glue gets brittle with

time and temperature changes and things pop off if there is any

movement or bending.

- rubber cement is great for paper product to paper but nothing else

(and then the next thing is to do a thin layer on each surface, allow

to dry, then attach)

- carpenter's glue is really good and enduring but takes time to dry

- this would probably be my choice

- gorilla glue is also really good but i have a nasty time keeping the

bottle open since it tends to glue itself shut and requires really

careful attention to how you seal the lid - a pain when a project

requires you to open and shut repeatedly.

- 2-part epoxy is really good too but you have to be patient and only

mix a bit at a time, and be ok with losing the last bit you mixed

because it dries quickly. You can try slow drying, or 5 min epoxy.

Try both.

You’ve Got the Skillz!

Keep an eye on your mailbox for the upcoming workshops, led by members of Woody Nook, in all sorts of different creative fields. In the meantime—save the dates: March 18 for the workshops, and March 6 as the RSVP deadline. It’s going to be great!

CONCERT & WORKSHOPS—March 11 Brian Doerksen will be coming to Woody Nook on March 11th to

teach a 2-session worship workshop, and then play a concert in the

evening with myself (Phil Drost) and another Worship Arts

graduate, Carly Reirson.

The first workshop will begin at 2pm, and will discuss Lent (the

human need for liturgy: Why do we follow a liturgical calendar?

Jeremiah 6:16), Lament (emotional honesty: Why it’s important to

express ourselves to our Creator in the difficult seasons of life), and

the Psalms (what can we learn from them about our own humanity,

and what do they teach us about the heart of God?).

There will be a half hour intermission with refreshments, and then

another session will begin at 3:30pm. In the second session, we

will discuss Worship (what does it mean to worship God with our

entire being? What are different ways that we can worship the

Triune God in our everyday lives?), Selecting emotional healthy

music (the importance of selecting songs that serve the hurting,

grieving, and suffering people in the congregation/ How do we

include songs of lament without making it the focus of the entire

service?), and Spiritual disciplines (What are they, and how do they

help us draw closer to God and worship Him with a greater sense of

His presence?).

The concert will begin at 8pm. Both the workshop and the concert

are free, and open to all.

Please RSVP on the Woody Nook website (wncrc.ca, under

the Calendar section—click on the date) if you are planning on

coming to the workshop. There will be a freewill offering at the

concert in support of Rehoboth Christian Ministries.

If you are planning on attending the afternoon workshop, be sure to

bring a Bible, pen, and notebook. It will be an excellent opportunity

to gain a deeper understanding of what it means to worship our

Triune God in all seasons of life.

college and career Feb 23 Theological Thirstdays is happening this coming

Thursday at Blindman Brewing in Lacombe! This time,

we will be discussing Creation and Evolution. Starting at

7pm. Please come out and bring a friend or two for some

open and engaging conversation

hey youth Feb 26 There is going to be a Fishing Derby on Gull Lake

for this month's youth event - February 26th. Please

bring your own equipment, but there will be some

extra stuff there if you don't have any. It will be a

competition, with prizes for different types of fish,

and the biggest/smallest. Make sure you're

licensed if you are going to be fishing. There will

be a big tent set up with a wood stove to keep

warm, and plenty of food and drinks. Because we

are eating out there, there will be dessert back at

Woody Nook at 6pm instead of a full out meal.

There will be music, and lots of things happening

for non-fishers, such as board games, and perhaps

a spot cleared for skating or hockey (so bring

skates and sticks). So if you don't fish, you can

lounge in the tent and visit with your friends.

Please invite friends - this is for any youth or young

adults. We will start at 2pm - meet at Wilson's

Beach - the fishing spot is not far. Hope to see you

there! - Phil

Thank You!

Dear Woody Nook CRC,

Thank you so much for allowing me to share the work of

CRWM in Uganda while I was in Alberta in January. Thank you

also for the offering that helps this work be possible.

Folks in Uganda are asking when I am coming, as an

intensive series of training sessions have been scheduled for the

long vacation in May. It is still my hope that I can be in a position

to be there to lead those sessions. There are more requests for

training than staff from Kenya can fill.

Please pray for me. I am finding it increasingly difficult

emotionally, mentally, and spiritually to be engaged in support

raising here, all the while having a face towards Uganda. it's hard

living in limbo-not living fully here nor there.

Woody Nook CRC has a unique opportunity to be a

supporting church for what was "one of their own!" I look forward

to partnering with you! –Blessings, Diana
