Knox News & EventsKnox Annual Meeting: Everyone is encouraged to attend the Annual Meeting of our congregation after worship this Sunday morning in Geneva Hall. Pick up a coffee and an Annual Report and join us to participate in decisions and hear reports about the life and mission of Knox Church. While all are welcome and encouraged to attend, only members are permitted to vote. Paper copies of the 2024 Annual Report, including the Financial Statements and the 2025 Budget, will be available in the Church Narthex and Geneva Hall. For a digital copy, see HERE. The meeting agenda is also available HERE. If you would like to attened the Annual Meeting virtually, please contact the office at knoxottawa@rogers.com to request the Zoom link. Last Week's Cancellation: Apologies to everyone who tried to connect online last Sunday after our in-person worship service was cancelled. While we hoped to have an abbreviated worship service ready to broadcast at 10:30 AM, due to technical challenges the recording wasn't available until mid afternoon. Office Hours & Announcements: Next week, Marianne will be in the office on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from 9 am to 4 pm. She works from home on Tuesday and Friday mornings. If you have an announcement for the bulletin/newsletter, please forward it to knoxottawa@rogers.com before 9 am on Wednesday. Thank you. Reminder: When using unnumbered offering envelopes, please remember to include either your name or envelope number on the front on your envelope. This will ensure proper allocation of your donation. Thank you! Mailboxes and Nametags in Geneva Hall: Mailboxes for those who attend Knox in person are located on the north side of Geneva Hall. For privacy reasons, the boxes are numbered. Each Sunday a list in alphabetical order by family name, showing box numbers, is placed on the desk in front of the mailboxes. (Please note: this is a mailbox number only; there are no changes to envelope numbers for donations to Knox.) Nametags to wear at coffee hour and other events can be left in your mailbox for safekeeping. If you would like a Knox nametag, or if we missed giving you a mailbox, please write your name on the list in front of the boxes. |
