Thanks for a great Sunday on September 24. I enjoyed the whole worship service and as always I enjoyed bringing the message of the Conversion of Paul to you. Sorry you had to put up with my piano playing.

Thanks for a great Sunday on September 17. I enjoyed the whole worship service and as always I enjoyed bringing the message of the Woman at the Well to you. Hopefully you like the geography lesson and will remember where Some Area (ok, Samaria) is. Thanks to Stephanie Orefice for sharing such wonderful piano music during our Worship on Sunday!

It was great to have Dishawna Barnard join us for the past few weeks and we look forward to her next visit. Also, it was nice to have Erik Dabis back from his trip to Southern California for the newly formed Territorial Youth Band and their performance at the Welcome of the Cadets. It was good to have Carol Hammon with us on Sunday, as well.

Welcome to the Vancouver Corps

The Salvation Army Vancouver Corps (USA) is entering the Digital Age. We are currently working on three things to get us started:

  1. A website that will hold general information for the public.
  2. This blog for people who are interested in the latest in our Church activities and events.
  3. Upgrading our sound system to include recording our service to post for podcasting.

I look forward to your input and feedback.
