We are honoured guests this morning at the Lord’s Table.  The Lord will strengthen our faith with the use of the Sacrament.  On this Communion Sunday, we invite our guests to listen carefully as the Form for the Celebration of the Lord’s Supper is read, which explains our understanding of the meaning and significance of the Sacrament.  We believe that those who partake of the sacrament should be in good standing of a Christian Church, should profess Jesus Christ as the Lord and Saviour of their lives, should desire the Sacrament as a means of strengthening their faith, and should do so in accordance with the teaching of 1 Corinthians 11: 23 - 29.

The ICHS Senior Choir is excited to be putting together an ICS cookbook, full of all of the favorite recipes from our school society.  We’re asking that everyone send in their favorite recipes—parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, staff, students, everyone!  The cookbook will be professionally printed, and available before Christmas.  Opportunities to pre-order, as well as pricing information will be coming.
Please send your recipes to Monica Moedt at
mmoedt@immanuelcs.ca by June 23, 2011, or drop off at the front office of the school.  If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to call Monica at the high school (328-4783), or at home (345-4174).  We’re looking forward to receiving your recipes!
