LEFROY/BELLE EWART NEWS
by Linda Gerow

First of all we are all very excited to be working with Larry Hurd of Manic Media in Lefroy, in the creation of a new website. This will be an important tool for our members to keep track of events and meetings, and for the community to get to know us, or to join in and get involved. We invite everyone to keep peeking in as we will be constantly adding to this website. Currently we have a very detailed history section and our calendar is up and running. Come see us at www.lefroyunited.ca.

Apple Pies: Once again Lefroy United Church is busy making our popular apple pies. You can preorder them, and this is suggested as they do go very fast. Just call the church at 705-456-2098 and leave us your order. You can pick them up fresh or flash frozen, ready to bake.

Cookie Tins: What would be more Christmassy than home baked Christmas Cookies? My mouth is watering as I'm typing. We tried this out last year and were so overwhelmed by the positive response we had to bake overtime! Once again this will be on a pre-order only, and yes they will go fast. You will get a full tin of assorted home baked treats for just $10. Call the church at 705-456-2098 to get your order in now. The tins will be available at the annual Christmas Bazaar on Dec. 1 for pick up.

Victorian Tea: Saturday November 10th from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Grange Hall in Lefroy. May we offer you a spot of tea? Another annual time-honoured tradition at the church. This event is a favourite for young and old. Be transported back to a time of beauty and elegance. Enjoy delicate finger sandwiches and fanciful desserts and get treated like the royalty you really are. All this for only $5.

Christmas Bazaar: Saturday Dec. 1. This craft sale wowed everybody last year.

Don't miss it this year, as we have an amazing variety of items for sale. You'll be able to complete your Christmas shopping and then enjoy a homemade lunch of soup and sandwich. Don't forget to go into the sanctuary for a little trip back into Innisfil's history as you see local antique quilts on display. This year we have also added a display of hand crafted or novelty tea towels. For crafters, there are still a few tables to rent to sell your wares. Call Diana at 456-0255 or the church at 456-2098.

Covenanting Service: We are very excited to welcome the Rev. Todd McDonald to the church. In our tradition, a new minister is welcomed to the community through a special covenanting service. Ours will be held on Sunday November 18th beginning with a potluck lunch at 12:30 p.m. The service begins at 2 p.m., with newly ordained Rev. Ruth McDonald from Bradford United Church as guest speaker. Dessert will be served after the service. As a special note, please be advised that there will be no regular 10 a.m. service that day.
