CHURCH IS MODIFIED FOR TODAY ❄️⬇️

Sunday January 25th, 2026

Hello Church Family,

For all those wondering, due to weather we are going to offer a modified service. We want to offer simplified services for those for whom it is safe to make the trek (with kids ministry still available at 9am).

For those staying home due to safety we encourage you to tune into the sermon online (on our Youtube Channel 👉🏻 Church on the River-LBC).

We do look forward to having the whole group together January 28th for our next Small Group ReConnect! Please have this Wednesday at 7pm on your radar! 🏘️

Men’s Lunch Update 👇🏼

This Sunday we were planning on having Rick Buck from FEB Central share with us at lunch. However, Rick is from Barrie and unfortunately, due to weather concerns, we're going to have to cancel this Sunday's lunch (we're rescheduling him for a Sunday in May). If you want reimbursement please speak with Pastor Jon.

In the same breath, we want to invite you to a Men's Breakfast Saturday February 28th! More details will be coming, in the meantime feel free to register with Brady Burnham or on our Church Center App (later this week)!

SMALL GROUPS CANCELLATION TONIGHT

❄️

For all those planning to attend tonight Small Group ReConnect. We are receiving notice that weather is quite poor in Corunna, Sarnia and Port Lambton.

As a result Pastor Jon will be at the church for a discussion and prayer time for anyone that can make it, but the bigger event is cancelled due to the condition of the roads and safety concerns for most people.

We do look forward to having the whole group together January 28th for our next Small Group ReConnect!

❄️ NOVEMBER 30 - CHURCH CANCELLED ❄️

Hello Church Family,

Unfortunately, given the forecast and the length of travel for many (including our guest speaker) our leadership has made a difficult call and cancelled the services this Sunday morning.

We do ask that you honour the focus of the the intended sermon and take 10 minutes out of your morning for focused prayer! You can pray for the lost, pray for the advancement of the gospel in our communities, in Canada and the world. Consider praying for local preachers of the gospel and for the local church to be bold with the good news. We ask that you pray for this Christmas season and for the Holy Spirit to elevate our affections for Jesus, as His family.

Yes, these type of announcements are hard to write and receive, but God has much ahead of us and He goes with us!

May we shine His beauty this Christmas!

~Jon Fitter
