COLDEST NIGHT OF THE YEAR - YWCA West Niagara is being held this year on February 28th. Just yesterday morning, 38 people woke up under a YW roof in West Niagara, celebrating the holidays safe, warm and together. You are helping to make this possible.
It's cold out there. And this February, our team is going to do something about it. Together with thousands of Canadians across the country, we're walking and fundraising to support and serve people and families experiencing hurt, hunger, and homelessness in our community. Please, give generously or consider joining Martha on the walk. For more information contact Martha Kralt mkralt1@gmail.com https://cnoy.org/location/westniagara donate or join me on the walk.

TENEBRAE GOOD FRIDAY SERVICE: Join us April 3 at 7:00 p.m. for our Tenebrae Service. Tenebrae, means “darkness” or “shadows,” and has been practiced by the church since medieval times. We join Christians of many generations throughout the world in using the liturgy of Tenebrae. It is a prolonged meditation on Christ's suffering. Readings trace the story of Christ's passion, music portrays his pathos, Communion and the power of silence and darkness suggests the drama of this momentous event. As lights are extinguished, we ponder the depth of Christ's suffering and death. Near the close of the service, the bell will toll seven times to represent the fullness of Christ's sacrifice for the world God loves—including you!
