Pastoral Search Update
After much prayer, consideration and discussion (with congregants and the leadership team), the Pastoral Search Committee decided to extend a pastoral call to Lon. Lon together with the wisdom of his family decided to accept this call. We are now working towards bringing Lon and his family here to Montreal to be Impact’s official pastor! Please keep this in prayer, there are financial issues, passport and visa issues, and the normal difficulty of moving a family with four young kids, these are still rather large obstacles to overcome. We are however confident that this is what God wants for Impact Church and through Him all things are possible. We are expecting that Lon would be here by July and as such this really needs prayer. Thanks for all of those who have been praying during this transition so far! Lets continue to pray for the details to be worked out!

Lent
A few Impacters are using Lent, the 40 days before Easter, as a time of spiritual renewal. It is a great time to fast, make changes in your life, and focus on reading the Bible. For more information, you can check out http://marshill.org/lent07/index.php , Mars Hill’s Lent page! If you’d like more information on Lent, you can contact Sacha (sacha@impactchurch.ca)

Jar Wars
Don’t forget to bring all that pesky change into church for JAR WARS 2007! If you place change in the jar for your “team,” it gives positive points. Bills give negative points, so put them in the opposite “team”’s jar! The winning team will be served by the girls! *ahem* I mean by the losing team! All the money will support
Impacters going on missions this year.
