The Light Turned Yellow – June 2015

The Light Turned Yellow

The light turned yellow, just in front of him. He did the right thing, stopping at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light by accelerating through the intersection.

The tailgating woman was furious and honked her horn, screaming in frustration, as she missed her chance to get through the intersection, dropping her cell phone and makeup. As she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window and looked up into the face of a very serious police officer. The officer ordered her to exit her car with her hands up.

He took her to the police station where she was searched, fingerprinted, photographed, and placed in a holding cell.  After a couple of hours, a policeman approached the cell and opened the door. She was escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting officer was waiting with her personal effects.

He said, “I’m very sorry for this mistake. You see, I pulled up behind your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping off the guy in front of you and cussing a blue streak at him. I noticed the ‘What Would Jesus Do’ bumper sticker, the ‘Choose Life’ license plate holder, the ‘Follow Me to Sunday-School’ bumper sticker, and the chrome-plated Christian fish emblem on the trunk, so naturally….I assumed you had stolen the car.”

Priceless

Baptism – June 2015

All kinds of things about baptism – come for an evening of soup and bread and lively conversation about everything from dunking and sprinkling, adult or infant to meaning, significance and efficiency. This deep mystery and simple ceremony is full of layers of meaning, some of which are challenging and some are comforting. Let’s explore together to enrich our understanding and appreciation for one another and for the journey of faith.

St Aidans Property Trust – Iona Close – June 2015

Trust Board Members

St Aidans Property Trust owns and manages the Iona Close property at 4 Woodside Ave. This is done on behalf of the St Aidans congregation. Iona Close has niche housing for older people. The nine units are available to people over the age of 55 who wish to and can enter into a licence to occupy arrangement.

The Trust is run by a committee of volunteers who over-see the running of the property. This includes finding new residents when units become available, arranging and over-seeing maintenance, payment of expenses such as rates and water etc., and compliance with various legislative requirements.

The Trust is looking for some new members to bolster the current membership. If you are looking for an opportunity to give something back to our community and want to support elderly people in having a safe and friendly environment in which to live then involvement in the Trust should be considered.

The Trust meets four times per year. So the time commitment is not too onerous.

If you wish to become involved then the existing Trust Board members will support you to learn about the Trust its obligations and to be an effective member of the Trust Board.

Please feel free to discuss this with any of the existing Trust Board members:

Tim (Chairman) 021 784472
