BAY OF QUINTE CONFERENCE PRAYER CYCLE - The prayer cycle
invites prayers for a ministry and its work. This week we pray for
the ministry of East Camden Pastoral Charge in Four Winds
Presbytery.
ADVERTISE WITH THE CHRONICLE! Get the word out to hundreds of
friendly folks by placing a business-card-sized ad in the Cambridge
Chronicle. For the remaining Advent issue of 2014 and all four 2015
issues costs $125, or just $25 per ad! If you'd prefer to buy a onetime placement, the cost for that is $30. And if you don't have a
business to promote, but would like to help offset the cost of this
invaluable communication tool, that would be appreciated, too.
Please bring payment and a business card to the office by Oct. 20.
NEED A RIDE TO CHURCH? - If you require a drive to the Sunday
worship service, call the church on Sunday before 10:00 am (please,
don’t leave a message on the answering machine)

PAINTING THE STARS – SCIENCE, RELIGION AND AN EVOLVING FAITH
- Development of the Christian faith did not end with Jesus
teachings in the early 1st century CE. It has evolved markedly over 2
millennia and is continuing to change in our day. Join with us
Monday evenings beginning Oct 20th at 7.00 pm in the parlour, to
learn the importance 0f understanding Christianity as a continually
changing and developing faith. Participate in “Painting the Stars”, a
7 part DVD discussion series with important insights on where
Christianity came from, where it is today and where it might be
going. Refreshments will be provided.
FALL RUMMAGE SALE - Thank you to all who helped at our Rummage
Sale on October 2 &. Not only did we see a profit of $2,140, we

Vicki's Values, A Place Called Home and the Lindsay Humane Society.
It's great to be able to give clothing, shoes, books and house wares
new life and help families in our community.
WRITERS… we’re now at the point to start thinking about our Advent
edition of the Cambridge Chronicle. Your contribution to the
newsletter is invaluable. The deadline for handing in articles will be
Friday, Oct. 24th. I’m afraid there will be no time for late
submissions. Everyone is welcome to contribute. We always look
forward to fresh ideas: perhaps a book review, a theatre or movie
review. Please forward your articles to Lou at [email protected].
THE DAMLUKES ARE COMING - Sunday, Oct. 19, at
3:00pm enjoy the infectious fiddling of the
DamLukes, an Uxbridge-area group combining
members of the Damus and Luke families. The group
values the kitchen party philosophy that "all are included". This is
truly a family concert to be enjoyed by all ages. A free-will offering
will be taken in support of Habitat for Humanity Kawartha Lakes
Build and the Cambridge St. United Church Music Program.

HUMOURS QUOTES FOR THANKINGSING:
 I hate turkeys. If you stand in the meat section at the grocery
store long enough, you start to get mad at turkeys. There’s
turkey ham, turkey bologna, turkey pastrami. Some one
needs to tell the turkey, ‘man, just be yourself. - Mitch
Hedberg
 Turkey: A large bird whose flesh, when eaten on certain
religious anniversaries has the peculiar property of attesting
piety and gratitude. - Ambrose Bierce, The Devil's Dictionary
