At a Glance – Sunday, September 11, 2022

Once again, there have been several phishing attempts reported to the Diocesan Office.  If you receive a request from Archbishop Greg, Rev. John or one of our staff asking for your help or the purchase of gift cards, and you are suspicious, please do not respond and delete the email.

Phishing is an attempt by cybercriminals posing as legitimate institutions, usually via email, to obtain sensitive information from targeted individuals. Phishing emails may look extremely authentic. Here are some tips on how to protect your confidential personal information:  

·         Do not click on links OR open attachments in emails or messages from people that you do not know.

·         Remember that the Archbishop or the staff or clergy would never ask you for assistance in this way.

·         Look out for spelling or grammatical errors.

·         Check the sender’s email address or the Reply email address. Is this address the same as you would usually see from this person or organization?

·         Be cautious with any unexpected messages. When in doubt, delete. 

·   if you are unsure, please contact the church office (403-282-3234) before you open the email or reply to the email

Improved Sound on Zoom and Vimeo Recording
We’ve made some improvements to the audio on our Zoom and Vimeo recording and hope you can “hear” the difference!

The service appears on your screen so you don’t need to print or otherwise have the liturgy to fully participate. The service is also recorded, so if you are unable to join on Zoom, check our Vimeo account (here) around 12noon Tuesday and you’ll be able to pray along. Please note that only “active speakers” appear in the video.

Join us at 9:30 am via Zoom. (Meeting ID: 859 3582 4614; Password: 1611).

PWRDF Update
Do you have a passion for cycling? Baking? Hiking? Reading? No matter what your favourite activity, you’re invited to join the PWRDF Wild Ride and put your stamp on it with your creative participation.
The PWRDF Wild Ride campaign will run until October 8, 2022 in support of our partners who work with refugees or internally displaced persons (IDPs).
PWRDF is proud to welcome Canada Helps as our fundraising partner this year. Throughout the summer, participants can join a team or start a team to fundraise for PWRDF. Participants will register for the Wild Ride through a Canada Helps platform that is embedded on our website. PWRDF Wild Ride is replacing Ride for Refuge, which we have participated in since 2014. However, with significant changes being made to that event in 2022, we have decided to organize our own campaign.
During the pandemic, we were encouraged by participants who ventured out on their own to create their own challenge. Those who want to cycle or walk this year can set their own courses. Archbishop Linda Nicholls, Primate of the Anglican Church of Canada, will again be lending her considerable musical talents to present two Hymn Sings on Facebook Live on September 22 and 24 at 7 p.m. Eastern Time. Request your favourite hymn when you make your donation to her campaign!
Music Requests
If you have a favourite hymn,  please drop the name of it into the box in the narthex. Specify a date if you have a particular time you would like it sung (or played) Otherwise we are happy to include it in a service that fits the theme:)

Do you like to sing?
Please feel free to join the choir! St Andrews has a great group of people who love to sing and we welcome new members for a season or for the year:) Practices are on each week til Easter and we have old and new anthems that we are practicing to sing!  When? Sunday mornings at 9:15! What a wonderful way to start the day!We practice anthems that will be upcoming,  as well as hymns for the service. For more information call Nancy Thomson at 403 949 3089.
