A message from the Outreach Committee for this upcoming Christmas season.......
LUC has received an appeal from Youth Centres of Calgary (YCC) which has opened 2 youth drop-in centres in Ogden and Forest Lawn, both considered to be “high needs” communities.
They provide mentoring, support, and enriching activities (art, sports music lessons, etc.) as well as unlimited food to about 50 kids per day at each centre. They have asked if we would like to help with their Christmas Box Program. Their goal is to distribute 150 boxes to families in these neighborhoods. Each family registers with them with their size, # of children, ages and sometimes wishes. The total cost of each box could be $300-400, including gift cards to SuperStore or Walmart. Following your interest in filling 100 backpacks, your outreach committee thinks you will enjoy filling 2 boxes. Two family lists will be on the Narthex table before December for you to sign. Boxes will be here for 2 Sundays, 6 and 13 before going to Ogden on Dec 17 .
Note: If there is anyone or any family, who would like to fill their own box, please let Sue Spratt know before December 1.
We will not be collecting gift cards for Glamorgan Centre this year as Outreach has given them a donation. The mitten tree and Santa sac will be available for filling as usual. Santa sac welcomes new adult toques, mitts, gloves, and underwear for street people.
The calendars have arrived - if you ordered a calendar it is on the table in the narthex along with an envelope for payment - please place your payments in the offering. Thank you

Thanks to the generosity of the David Ferguson Music Fund, we are delighted to offer Faith Through Music & Stories, a FREE children’s program designed especially for children ages 3 to 8.
Our time together begins with welcoming, announcements, and a song, hymn, or story that introduces the theme of the day. At 10:15 am, children are invited to the Forte Music room, where professionally trained instructors from Forte Music Studio lead fun, age-appropriate activities that introduce children to the wonderful world of music and the basics of music theory.
After music time, children enjoy another 15–20 minutes of fun and creative activities—including crafts, dancing, stories, and games—all connected to the theme of the day.
Come join us for a special time of music, stories, creativity, and friendship!
We are looking for Sunday Scripture Readers. You can volunteer through the website here Volunteer Opportunities and scroll down to the Sunday you prefer. Thank you!!
The "Blue Clothing Bin" in the Lakeview UC parking has been successful so far! We have had several loads picked up already. Please consider dropping in your good used clothing, shoes/boots, outerwear, linens and towels. All donations will be weighed and we will be paid per pound for the donations. This is a "green initiative" as all donations will be repurposed and nothing will go into landfill. PLACE ALL ITEMS IN A BAG AND PUSH THE DOOR UP TO DEPOSIT. Thank you for supporting this ongoing Lakeview UC fundraiser! Total for 2026 so far is $193.00.
