KPC men's breakfast fellowship meeting--8:30 a.m., Sat., March 2, 2024--at the church hall (on the north side of the church parking lot). The guest speaker will be Bill Buschman who will speak on his life and faith journey. Any donations received at this meeting will go towards the KPC refugee sponsorship fund. Please let our minister Richard Watson or Kiejoon Kim know if you are coming to this meeting. You may also write your names on a sign-up sheet in the church narthex. Sponsorship obligations for our refugee couple will be finished soon. In anticipation, the Refugee Committee started planning the next sponsorship last fall. We presented a proposal to sponsor a refugee family of 6 to Session which they approved at their January meeting. This past Saturday (25 Feb) we learned that the family had successfully crossed the border into a safe country. The danger and stress they had been subjected to at home will become memories with much brighter future ahead for them all. Now that they have crossed the border, we can submit our application to the national office of the Presbyterian Church to sponsor this family to Canada. The process is a lengthy one...possibly a year. We ask the congregation to support our efforts to bring this family to Vancouver through your financial donations to the Refugee Sponsorship Fund. Ask colleagues at work and other friends to support our project. You can also consider joining the committee. Please talk to a member. We hope you are as excited about sponsoring a new family as we are!  Join us when the G3 Group (Games, Giggles and Gab) meets at Crofton Manor on Thursday, March 7 from 2:00-3:30 p.m. Miss Chief, the mischievous monkey, will be on hand to help get the giggles going.Moving G3 to Crofton Manor will enable residents to meet Kerrisdale Church members who they may have seen via the YouTube live-stream of our Sunday service. It will also provide them with a break from their usual routine and a visit for some residents who may not have family nearby.Speak with Marg or Bill Buschman for more information.  Request for help: The Metro Vancouver Alliance, an organization that our Presbytery belongs to, is working on a campaign to protect and increase housing co-ops to help with the affordable housing crisis in this area. We want to hear if you have ever lived in a co-op or have family or friends who do. If you do, and if you think they would take a few minutes to speak with us about the value of co-op housing, that would be fabulous.Please speak with Glen Davis about this.
