Upcoming Events

Leona and Richard Bergstrom, directors of 2nd ½ for Him Ministry, extend an invitation to “ReIgnite: A Transformational Retreat”. This is a 48-hour experiential process guiding Boomers in the discovery of purpose and passion for life and ministry. June 1-3 at Warm Beach Camp, Stanwood, WA. Brochures with more details are available at the registration table on Thursdays or from Pastor Ross.

On Wednesday, June 20 we will spend the day on the church bus visiting several thrift stores to shop for bargains, and maybe even a bakery. The 'mystery' is where exactly the bus stops. The one stop we can tell you is for lunch at a nearby restaurant, which is at your own expense. Cost is $15.00 each.

Join us on Friday, July 6 for a trip to the Loafing Shed Glass Studio in Port Kells. Watch as the Master Glass Blower creates hand-blown art glass while he explains the process step-by-step. You can also browse hundreds of finished pieces on display in the art gallery. Lunch will be at your own expense in a nearby restaurant. Cost is $20.00 each.

On Monday, July 16 we will journey by church bus to the Othello Tunnels, just east of Hope. These tunnels, running through the Coquihalla River Canyon, make for an easy walk while enjoying spectacular scenery.Then we return to Hope where, after a stop for lunch at your own expense, we tour through the 150-year-old Christ Church (now a National Historic Site) and the Hope Museum. Afterwards, you are free to explore Hope on your own, or just find a bench overlooking the Fraser River. Cost is $35.00 each.

Join us on Tuesday, August 7 for a trip to the Capilano Suspension Bridge, just minutes from the bustle of downtown Vancouver. There are many things to explore there including Treetops Adventure (which offers a squirrel's eye view of a coastal forest), the Cliffwalk (a heart-stopping journey on walkways jutting out from the cliff face above Capilano River) and much more. Lunch will be on your own expense in either the rugged Logger's Grill, casual Canyon Cafe or full-service Bridge House Restaurant. Cost is $48.00 each.

Join us on Thursday, August 23 for a trip to False Creek. We catch the bus at the church and travel via transit to the Main Street/Science World Skytrain station. After a short walk across the street, we board one of those 'little blue boats' for a tour of False Creek. After the tour, we disembark at Granville Island and you are free to explore the shops, galleries, theatres, restaurants and food market on your own. Lunch is at your own expense. You can stay on Granville Island or use your Ferries Daypass to travel around False Creek. Stops include such destinations as the Vancouver Museum, H.R. MacMillan Planetarium, the Maritime Museum and much more. Head home when you are ready. Cost is $16.00 (Seniors) or $21.00 (Adults).

Every Tuesday, men that are 50+ are welcome to join us at Ricky’s restaurant in Fleetwood (corner of 152nd Street and Fraser Hwy) at 10:00am for coffee, conversation and connecting.
