Did your community of faith recognize indigenous day of prayer and indigenous people’s day? Brain injury awareness? Pride or affirming explorations? Multiculturalism day June 30, Canada day July 1? Connect with me and share from books to movies to places to go and things to do, it is good to share and build community. Perhaps you are thinking more about the neighbours around you and have been meaning to contact me about requesting a neighbourhood profile? It might spark new ideas. One community of faith is launching a project with a community partner to offer social opportunities for their neighbourhood’s new families who need time and space to come together and get to know each other. A community of faith has started an intentional music outreach through the summer. How about a drop-in choir this summer? Don’t forget to invest in some lemonade and perhaps meet outside. Passersby might drop in. One community of faith had their outdoor ser ice in a city park area and discovered neighbours came to join them. If you ha e a community garden, consider how you can expand and build relationships such as open church doors for cooling off, inviting gardeners to gather at certain time to have refreshments or a picnic meal, a gathering time to cook together using produce, and so much more.
