Our church has suffered a devastating loss due to COVID 19. Dr. Wilma Morrison has left this earth to stand in God's presence and hear him say "Well done, thou good and faithful servant."

She was a Niagara Falls icon.

We had a wonderful weekend with the conference youth (and a nice group of adults as well) despite the fact that our a/c seems to be rebelling against any expectation of being fully functional. It was nice to have a full sanctuary with so many guests. It is always nice to have visitors join with us for worship.
