Jar Wars
Don’t forget to bring all that pesky change into church for JAR WARS
2007! If you place change in the jar for your “team,” it gives
positive points. Bills give negative points, so put them in the
opposite “team”’s jar! The winning team will be served by the girls!
*ahem* I mean by the losing team! All the money will support
Impacters going on missions this year.
Missions
If you have been on missions, please tell Sacha, especially if you
have pictures! Email her at sacha@impactchurch.ca
Tax Receipts
Tax receipts for offerings to Impact Church will be issued the first
Sunday of March.
Contacting Lon
If you’d like to get in touch with our new pastor, Lon, you can e-mail him at lon@impactchurch.ca
Lent
A few Impacters are using Lent, the 40 days before Easter, as a time
of spiritual renewal. It is a great time to fast, make changes in
your life, and focus on reading the Bible. For more information, you
can check out http://marshill.org/lent07/index.php , Mars Hill’s Lent
page! If you’d like more information on Lent, you can contact Jerome
(jerome@impactchurch.ca) or Sacha (sacha@impactchurch.ca)
Also, St. James Church is holding a lenten speaker series every Sunday at 12h20, check out this week’s speaker:
“Sky Bellefleur is the Director of Centre Projets Autochtones du Québec (PAQ). She started life in a home with a verbally and emotionally abusive mother and left when she was 16. Life on the road was hard - drugs and alcohol - and the consequences…jail time. Sky will be speaking to us about her recovery and healing.”
Guys’ & Girls’ Night : March 17th
Bowling together, then splitting up! Talk to alvin@impactchurch.ca or

Thin Place Retreat
“I want to invite you to a very special and unusual retreat The Thin Place is organized by YWAM Quebec and Curieux and Impact Churches in Montreal. Jeff Pratt is the founder of YWAM AXIOM in New Haven (Yale U) and is well connected to the emerging church movement in the US and the UK. As a young Mormon priest, it was his encounter with the cross that brought him to Jesus and, since then, to christian ministry. On the eve of Easter, we’ll focus on the relevence of the cross as the heart of the gospel, even in our post-Christian and postmodern culture.” For more information: lieu.etroit@gmail.com / (514) 847-0497
