IT’S HARD TO BELIEVE it’s already June, and summer is
just a hop, skip and a jump away! We’ve been busy in
PromiseLand over the past few months, and I think we’re
all looking forward to a relaxing and fun summer!
This May, we launched our World Religions Series by
learning about Judaism, Buddhism and Islam. We had a
Passover Seder – we sang music, told the Exodus story and
perhaps most importantly, tasted some of the traditional
food. Then, we talked about appreciation and tried to be
present in each moment by doing different Buddhist medi-
tations. We learned about the Muslim Prophet Mohammed
and practiced writing greetings in Arabic Script. It was a
great couple of weeks and helped us appreciate the diversity
of our city and world!
This summer, all kids are invited to learn and play together
every Sunday in the Chapel of St. Nicholas. We will have
books, crafts, games and DVDs to keep kids engaged and
learning during the summer months. Every week from June
19th to August 28th, a PromiseLand parent will downstairs
ready to welcome the kids of CCDP as well as all visiting
kids! Hope to see you there!
But before we head off to camp, cottages, or just hanging
around the city, we are having one LAST PARTY! Join us

In response to the numerous artists’ queries, we have set
up a selection jury of three of our congregation members:
Nora Dobell, Joyce Hamilton and Bob Reeves. They have
an interesting job ahead for them. It promises to be an
exciting line-up of artists and a full schedule.
For the Summer, we have scheduled two group art shows
of five artists each. The theme for the first show (June 19th
- July 31st) is: “Does art have a transformative power?” Five
artists are inviting viewers to see their work and ponder.
From our congregation, Jane Gillespie will be displaying
4 Chinese brush paintings, and Vivien Jenkinson will be Director and Staff of Inner

The second group art show will hang from Aug. 7th to

is in the process of finalizing the line-up of artists for yet
another interesting exhibition.
The schedule for the rest of the calendar year is just about
