It’s almost Christmas! Let’s partner with Samaritan’s Purse to pack gift-filled shoeboxes for children in need around the world. Mark 10:14 reminds us to let the children come to Jesus; each shoebox is an opportunity to share the Gospel and show God’s love. To participate, pick up some labels in the church foyer. We have run out of shoeboxes, but you can use any shoebox or plastic container from home. Then, go shopping for gifts — click here for gift suggestions. Remember to pray for the children before returning your packed shoeboxes to the designated area in the foyer by November 17. Thank you for your generosity!

Come and pray with the Elders. 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!

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.

Winter Camp is an unforgettable weekend retreat where we join together with other GCC Youth Ministries to grow in our relationship with the Lord. We do this through main teaching time, small group discussions, and activities. Our hope and prayer is that students will come home spurred on in their walk with Christ. It will be happening at Muskoka Woods. We will be meeting at Hope Bible Church Markham to travel by bus together there and back. The cost to attend Winter Camp is $238 per camper. If you have need for financial assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out to Matt Rohr. Jr. High Winter Camp: click here to register. Sr. High Winter Camp: click here to register.
