CHRISTIAN LIFE IN LONDON | SEPTEMBER 2021 EDITION
Community Events
This is a list of upcoming community events, Click Here to add your community event to this listing.
We have become quite creative in finding ways to safely gather, as many of us have become experts at socializing by ZOOM, WebEx Meeting and MS Teams.
Accepting the reality that we all must wear masks and continue reasonable social distancing, gathering as we did pre-pandemic is still several months away. Yet, many churches, ministries and Christian entertainers are conducting virtual events, allowing us to socialize safely.
We urge you to check the website of your church and any of the ministries listed HERE for virtual events that may be of interest to you.

We are excited about the people who will make commitments to Christ during the Celebration outreach weekend, and we are committed to seeing them plugged into local churches across the Greater London region!
Pastors, we would like to invite you, your pastoral staff and other key leaders to this event to discuss the follow-up of new believers. We will share proven follow-up and discipleship methods and materials, as well as give you the opportunity to share what you are currently doing in your church, if you wish to do so.
Join us to further prepare to receive new believers into your church following the Celebration!

Celebrating 42nd year, thousands of youth and adults have enjoyed playing and watching sports
at the Byron Optimist Sports Complex. Due to the pandemic we were closed last year and finally
this July we were able to start full programs with a shorter season but at least the children are
out and playing again!
Thanks to the extensive ongoing financial support of the Byron Optimist Club, our children and
many adults have the opportunity to play at one of the finest facilities in Ontario. The Complex is
owned by the Byron Optimist Sports Complex Inc., a registered charity, and run by a volunteer
Board of Directors from Byron. The Complex does not receive any financial support from the City
of London, Ontario and Federal Governments.
This is our third golf tournament to help raise funds for the Byron Optimist Sports Complex
for its improvements to the sports fields and facilities. We invite you to join us in supporting the
Complex so that we can continue to provide the kind of facility we can all enjoy. You can
participate by:
1. Joining us as a GOLFER for $ 110 which includes an 18-hole round at one of the area’s
premier golf courses, continental breakfast, boxed lunch at the turn
2. Participate by being a HOLE SPONSOR for $ 50.00,
3. Participate by being a PRIZE DONOR for our raffles or on line silent auction.
