This day is not just for biological mothers. Although that's often how this day gets billed. A true mother is any woman who, by personal choice chooses to love and nurture the children God's brought into her life. Whether they be biologically hers, or just happen to be the kid next door. To all such moms, we celebrate you today!

this week:

"Happy Mother's Day!"

This Week at Port of Grace

RAISE THE ROOF CAFEFriday Evening, 7-10PM. We're having a cafe. Our aim is to raise funds, through donations, to put a roof on a care center that cares for boys and girls who have been orphaned by aids, in Swaziland, Africa. The roof on a portion of this care center was destroyed, leaving the space unusable. We're going to change all that.

Join us for an evening of great music, deserts and great fun as we make a difference, because of Jesus in Swaziland, Africa.

WE ARE FAMILY!This Sunday we wrap up our series, "We are the Church!" We continue to seek to be the people God has called us to be, in our world, for his glory and for the building of his kingdom.

Run for the WorldJoin us Saturday morning at 9:30AM at the OM offices for the "Run for the world 5K run." Operation Mobilization will host a run to raise funds for different organizations

Pizza NightJoin us for Pizza night this Saturday. If you're just inquiring about Pizza Night, it's for anyone who needs a meal. It's free and there are no strings attached. If you're a member of Port of Grace and you want to help out, we need help with set up, serving, and take down. Set up starts at 4:30PM.

Sunday ServiceOur focus this Sunday is the wrapping up of our series on the "The Church."

Jack and Jill Baby ShowerRecently we heard from some neighbours who moved to Port Colborne from Nova Scotia. They're having a baby girl any day now and because of the move and a job that didn't happen, they find themselves in a bind. Well, Port of Grace style, we want to help. We're doing that by throwing them a baby shower this Sunday at 6:00PM Upstairs. Come on out!

This Week...

Lord's Supper: Come and celebrate the Lord's supper with us. Remember what he has done on our behalf and let it bring hope into your life of the freedom and victory you enjoy in Jesus Christ.

We are the Church: We've been talking about what Jesus had in mind when he created the Church. We started out by looking at how do you become part of this family we call the church. We looked at several churches the Bible paints as models of what being Church is all about. This Sunday we look at the things we mentioned in our recent church survey and compare them to the scriptures as we wrap up this series on what it means for us to be Church.

This Week!

Gord Abraham's Induction Service! Gord & Ruth Abraham, have moved on to pastoral ministry. However, we're glad they didn't move too far away. Gord is pastoring Port Colborne Baptist and this Sunday is his Induction Service. As brothers and sisters we want to share in this celebration with him. The service starts at 3:00PM at Port Colborne Baptist. If you need a ride, please talk to pastor Ed or one of the other leaders.

Sunday Morning We've looked at their lives before. We've tried to learn from their example. However, as we consider what it means to be the Church that Jesus had in mind, it's hard to discuss that, without talking about the first place where Christ-followers were called "Christians" or "Little Christs." They are the Church of Antioch, and we want to learn what it was that was going on in and through them that made them an example of what it meant to be Christ-followers and Church.
