A federal election has been called for May 2, 2011. This provides an important opportunity for the churches of our community a) to reflect on how faith, public witness and the political process intersect, and b) to get to know our candidates and their views on issues that are important to us. To this end, our congregation will help to host a federal All-Candidates Meeting on Thursday, April 28, 2011 at 7 pm. It will be held in the Parkview Village Auditorium (12184 Ninth Line), Stouffville.
This gathering of MP candidates for the riding of Oak Ridges-Markham is sponsored by the Stouffville Ministerial Association (representing Stouffville churches). It will be an information forum to hear where MP candidates stand on issues of concern to the churches. The evening will be moderated by Pep Philpott. The organizing committee consists of: Rene DeVries, Allan Reesor-McDowell, and Arnold Neufeldt-Fast. See our new blog page (allcandidates.blogspot.com) for up-dated information and ways that you can help.
