The Seeds of Hope Granting Program
Thanks to the generous members of the United Church and the General Council Office, we are pleased to announce the following grants made through: The Seeds of Hope Granting Program: 57 grants were awarded through 2020 Spring round of the Seeds of Hope Granting program at the United Church of Canada Foundation totaling $395,044. Children, Youth, and Young Adult Programs From the Camping Trust Fund $1,500 to Burry Heights Camp and Retreat Centre (St. John's, NL) in support of the Outdoor Chapel Upgrading and Trail Revitalization project. This spring they aim to make their chapel more accessible by completing groundwork and removing trees. They also aim to revitalize the trail system that leads to the chapel by removing trees and filling holes to make it safer. Their goal is for the chapel to be able to be accessed safely for everybody through our intricate trail system $2,000 to Hardisty Lake United Church Camp (Forestburg, AB) in support of their Floor covering for outdoor play space project. At Hardisty Lake United Church Camp they have just received funding to build a 32 by 16 foot outdoor play space. This will enhance the camp by providing sun and rain protection for outdoor activities. They are going to install a rubber floor in this play space which will make it safer and more user friendly than the hard concrete floor. $2,000 to MacKenzie Camp Society (Armstrong, BC) in support of the MacKenzie Camp Lighting project. The MacKenzie Camp Lighting Project involved the upgrading of lighting both in the Craft Hall, a multi purpose building used for many program activities, especially during rainy days when outdoor programming is unavailable, and our kitchen/Dining Hall building. -

Beechwood Market Keeps Our Village Vibrant
The voice of the community for more than 60 years • May 2018 • Vol. 69, No. 5 Beechwood Market keeps our village vibrant By Chris Penton The Beechwood Market Spring Edition, which was held Saturday, May 5, was one of a series of off-season editions designed to tie the summer season together. These off-season editions keep the Beech- wood Market brand top of mind and keep our little village vibrant and alive with local commerce. Thanks so much to our partner, Chartwell New Edinburgh Square, for being all around awesome. Going into its fifth season, the Beechwood Market’s goal of bringing the neighbourhood together remains the same. The Mar- ket, as you know it, will be back at Optimiste Park behind the Beechwood fire station beginning June 16. Each Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. you can expect the best local produce, live mu- sic, the Beechwood Breakfast, kids play area and, for the first 10 weeks, a swimming pool! Answering the call of those that cannot join us on the week- ends, we will introduce two new week-day ‘Mini-Markets’. A much smaller pop-up version of the Saturday operation, you can expect select products like local veg, fruit, maple syrup, honey, eggs, oils and sauces. Tuesdays you’ll find a Mini-Market on the front lawn of the new Rideau Sports Centre at 1 Donald St. Thursdays we’ll show up at Natalie’s Urban Ottawa at 115 Beechwood Ave. Both no frills Mini-Markets run from 3 to 6 p.m. -

Children, Youth, and Young Adult Programs From the Camping Trust Fund • $5,400 to Camp Shagabec Committee (Saskatoon, SK) in support of the Gender-Neutral Washrooms project.

Smith Fund • $10,000 to The United Church of Canada and The Hub Community Network (Toronto, ON) in support of The Hub Community Network.

The W.U.C. Uniter Woodroffe United Church 613-722-9250 Woodroffeunited.Org Lent 2016
The W.U.C. Uniter Woodroffe United Church 613-722-9250 woodroffeunited.org Lent 2016 Minister’s Message Submitted by Rev. Kathryn Peate A study found (and yes, they do studies on everything nowadays) that people rarely laugh alone, but are six times as likely to laugh in the presence of another, and thirty times more likely to laugh when in a group. You can get a chuckle from jokes and video clips on the internet but not usually the powerful rib-tickling, knee-slapping, fall-over laughter you get when it bounces off others. Those who are parents know that often children can provide a great deal of laughter – if you are willing to look at each situation from a joy-filled perspective. For instance, I am the oldest of three children. My father married late in life (for that time) and was almost forty when I born. He spent the first two years of my life saying to anyone who would listen, “I can’t wait till she’s walking and talking.” Since then he keeps telling me he can’t wait till I sit down and be quiet. J God is a God of joy. I believe Jesus laughed a lot when He was on this earth. He must have – after all, He enjoyed spending time with children. Jesus also spent a lot of time with His disciples, who in their squabbling and misunderstandings, often must have seemed very childish at moments. What we want as Christians, is to experience joy – but not just joy for ourselves, but contagious joy. -
