Are you a musician? We know there may be some of you who play instruments that aren't in the typical band you see on Sunday mornings. Maybe you play the violin, saxophone, trumpet, harp, accordion, banjo, harmonica - any instrument! If this is you and you would be interested in having a conversation about how you could be involved in the music ministry at church, we want to invite you to reach out to worship@hopemarkham.ca and just share a bit about yourself and the instrument you play. We believe that music is a gift from God that unites cultures, languages, styles, and genres and there may be a place for you to use that gift or skill here at our church. We look forward to hearing from you!

Deya Esteban and Frank Zhong are going on mission as summer interns with Toronto City Mission. Their mission is to build meaningful relationships with children affected by gun and gang violence, poverty, fatherlessness, and more. They aim to plant seeds of the gospel in these children's lives through word and deed, allowing God to do the work in their hearts that only He can do. As part of their internship, they are fundraising to support activity supplies, field trips, a portion of their salaries, and other camp-related needs. Please consider contributing to their mission through this donation link.

Camp week is from July 22-26, and we need the house of the Lord to be praying!

• Please pray that God would work in the hearts of the youth attending -- for the salvation of campers who have not placed their faith in Christ, and for those who are saved to be matured spiritually.
• Pray for strength, endurance, patience, love, and spiritual vitality for those who are serving.
• Pray for spiritual protection, good health, and good weather for everyone.

Thank you for praying, church!

Come and pray with the Elders on Monday, August 12th from 7-8 pm in the Lower Level Multipurpose Room. Your presence is valued, and your prayers are appreciated. As it's written in Matthew 18:20, "For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.” Let's unite in faith and make a difference as a church family. See you there!

Our church is GROWING! We have a need for those who are able to serve in the Welcome Team (at the 9am service) and Hope Kids Team. If you are able and willing, please contact Mihir (Welcome Team) or Jenn (Hope Kids Team). Thank you!

Here at Hope Markham, we believe firmly in the power of prayer. We invite you to join us in an ongoing effort to depend on God through unceasing prayer. Our prayer team meets to pray during the 9am and 11am service on Sundays. We are always looking for more people to join! If you feel called to serve in this way, please email prayer@hopemarkham.ca. We believe that our prayers make an impact in our church and beyond, and we look forward to praying together on Sunday mornings!

Our Hope Kids resource library, located upstairs next to the nursing room, has a growing and diverse range of titles, from picture books to parenting guides, catering to both children and parents. Our library is open on Sundays. For security reasons, during service hours, the doors to the kids' area remain locked. However, after the service, parents and children are encouraged to browse the collection freely. We've also made it more convenient for you by putting our library catalog on the Church Center app, allowing you to explore books from the comfort of your home and borrow them when you come on Sunday. When you're ready to borrow or return, simply head over to the Hope Kids registration desk, where our friendly team will be ready to assist you.

Working for Christ is a natural outflow of our relationship with God and an expression of our worship and walk.

There are many serving options in the Welcome Team, Kids and Youth Ministry, and Outreach opportunities, among others. Click here to explore today how you can serve!
