We will host a Funeral Preparation Seminar on Sunday, October 26th from noon to 1:30 PM. There will be a discussion about pre-planning led by a representative from Foster's Funeral Home, as well as instruction from Kersi on creating a funeral liturgy. Light refreshments will be served. Please pre-register by emailing the office at office@stbarnabas.ca or call (403) 283-3035.

Children of all ages are invited to join us for a fun and engaging time of learning, singing, and growing in faith. If you are interested in volunteering with Sunday School please talk to Abra after the service!

Sunday School will be held on October 26th, November 16th and 30th. 

Check the Bulletins page of the website for the Youth Bulletin next week. 

Our annual Harvest Lunch for parishioners will be catered by Bon Ton Meat Market who will provide prime rib, mashed potatoes, steamed vegetables, and gravy. Yummy!

2026 BAS Calendars have arrived. There are envelopes in the narthex for ordering a calendar(s) at $8 each. Please include your name and the number of calendars  on the envelope and place it on the collection plate. After your payment has been received by either cash, cheque or e-transfer, they will be set out in the narthex for you to pick up the following week. The BAS calendars are on the left in the photo. 

This year we are taking pre-orders for the BCP calendars (with the watercolour images). If you would like a BCP calendar, please email office@stbarnabas.ca The price will be approximately $12 each but is not yet determined as it will depend on how many we order. Deadline for orders is October 23.

If paying by e-transfer to office@stbarnabas.ca, please indicate in the message area that it is payment for a calendar(s).

This year’s World of Gifts highlights the bright ideas and innovation of our partners. From clean water and eco-toilets to egg incubators and honey bees, you can support projects that improve local health, care for creation and provide opportunities for people to become more economically stable.

Thanks to a generous donor, all gifts will be matched up to $100,000!

Across the country, people have received the World of Gifts guide in the October Anglican Journal. Didn't get yours yet? Not to worry, you can review the guide here.

Every year, our donors give approximately $400,000-$450,000 to the World of Gifts campaign. You can “buy” gifts to support our partners, or why not give a meaningful gift in honour of a loved one? Simply check off the box on the order form to receive a physical card that you can fill in and deliver.

What about postal interruptions?

When ordering online, you can indicate whether you’d like to receive a physical card (to be mailed after the postal strike ends), or send an ecard directly to the recipient. You can also download the gifts cards to print at home and hand deliver them to the people on your Christmas list.

With each of these 40 items, you’re showing your commitment to Alongside Hope’s mission to build a truly just, healthy and peaceful world.

To sponsor altar flowers, sign up on the flower calendar posted on the bulletin board in the narthex. As there is room for only one set of flowers on the altar, if someone has already signed up for the date you wish, we request that you choose another date. Cost of flower sponsorship is $60 and is included in the calculation of your tax receipt.

Please contact the office by Tuesday of the week before your sponsorship date to provide your dedication to be printed in the bulletin.
