The Video E-Newsletter

of Mount Royal United Church

for Friday June 16th 2023

Welcome to our one-hundredth and forty-eighth edition of the Mount Royal United Church Video E-Newsletter. You will find the video at the bottom of this message.

If you have any news items or information you think we should be including in an upcoming e-newsletter, please send your suggestion to newsletters@mountroyaluc.ca we will do our very best to put it on for you.

A quick reminder that our Sunday Service is live streamed from the sanctuary beginning at 10:30 AM and can also be watched later on the church website. The Prelude will begin at 10:15 AM with music and the announcement slides before the service begins with Rev. Stuart.

The weekly bulletin will be available here.

This video will be produced and sent out weekly on Friday morning with all the important things from our faith community. We plan to keep them short so you have time to drink a cup of tea or coffee while you watch.

We hope you have a very good day today.

Best Regards,

Newsletter Committee

Message from - a member of our Community of Faith, Susan Fowler

Hi and welcome to this week’s edition of Virtual Voices. I hope this finds you well.

I was working in my garden on Wednesday and thinking the month of June has just flown by… Where has the time between Mother’s and Father’s Day gone?

There seem to be so many things happening in and around the area this week. Cathy highlights a few of them in this week’s announcements; the Highland Games, the Three Father’s Memorial Run and a performances by CF Snowbirds and the SkyHawks Parachute Teams. They are all a bit intertwined with the latter two performing while the other activities are taking place. If you are looking for something to do this weekend, check out these events.

Like music? See the City of Moncton’s Acoustica concert series performers and locations here!

June is Pride Month and recognized by the United Church. See its statement here on celebrating Pride Month here!

And finally, Wednesday this week is National Indigenous People’s Day. If you want to hear the Moderator, Carmen Lansdowne’s message about how you can recognize the day you can find it here!

Have a good week. And Happy Father’s Day to great dads and terrific role models.
