Pastor Dave recently said that physical, mental and spiritual health are closely related. In that vein, NSA congregants and friends are invited to get out into the beautiful forest of Cypress and ski or snowshoe. This is not a competitive exercise, but a chance to get together in the outdoors and .. MOVE TOGETHER!!!

Please meet at 6:30pm on Fridays at the Hollyburn Lodge, on Cypress. Groups will go out by 6:35pm to enjoy the mountain and reconvene at 8pm for hot chocolate in the Hollyburn Lodge.

For more information, please contact Donna or John Weston (dj.weston@shaw.ca).  Donna is a certified personal trainer, and John is the head of the Canadian Health and Fitness Institute. They will meet each Friday except Good Friday, February through March. 

You can buy a ski or snowshoe ticket at Guest Services on Cypress or online. You can also rent equipment at the mountain.   

"Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, which you have from God?"
1 Corinthians 6:19

NOTE:  NSA encourages you to participate with Donna & John but the church is not overseeing the activity and takes no legal responsibility for accidents, injuries or attendant risks.

Our 2024 Women's Retreat will be held at NSA on Friday May 3, (7-9pm) and Saturday May 4th.  Our guest speaker is Aisling (pronounced Ashling) Zweigle, Family Life Pastor at Tenth Avenue Alliance Church.  The title of this year's retreat is "Dancing in the Darkness: finding levity and lightness in the dark and cloudy spaces of our lives".  Aisling is a dynamic and engaging speaker and the sessions will be encouraging as she explores the ideas of discovery, delight and even dancing in seasons of darkness and clouded vision.

More details will be posted soon and registration will open in early March.

Last Sunday one of our preschoolers lost his beloved stuffed animal at church -- a blue and white penguin with a yellow beak and feet, as seen in the photo above.  If anyone has seen it, or maybe taken it home accidentally, we would greatly appreciate its return!  It has great sentimental value.  If found, please drop off at the church office.

Please check the Lost & Found box at the Welcome Desk for any clothing or items you are missing!  We will be emptying the box at the end of the week and donating what has been left behind.
