Was great to see a couple of our Thrive kids out enjoying Pumkin Fest last night!

We’re a few days away from Pumpkin Fest, things are starting to come together! This past Sunday some of our young adults got their hands dirty carving pumpkins. When you’re at the event on Friday, keep your eyes peeled for these! #wearesouthridge #pumpkinfest

Pastor Brent has lots of updates to share this week! From Pumpkin Fest (can you read that upside-down invitation?), to micro-churches, to our Spiritual Disciplines series. #wearesouthridge #spiritualdisciplines

On October 30th from 6-8:30pm SouthRidge is hosting a new event called Pumpkin Fest! This is a drive through event that will be filled with fun and games and ca...ndy for your whole family! We are taking all necessary precautions to keep this event COVID safe including regular sanitizing, and keeping groups to just your bubble. This event is being run in support of the Langley Food Bank, so we encourage you to bring a food item to donate! Bring your family, bring your friends. We can't wait to see you at Pumpkin Fest!

This week on the blog, Kelly shares a little bit about fasting from her perspective: "... [it's] one that is sticking with me a little more than the others (much to my dismay)." Read the rest here: https://southridgefellowship.ca/fasting-2/ #wearesouthridge #spiritualdisciplines #fasting

This week Craig spoke about one of the most difficult disciplines - fasting. So, are you going to give it a try? https://southridgefellowship.ca/fasting/ #wearesouthridge

Sometimes people will get sick. When someone gets sick is it because of germs. Germs are tiny things that live all around us. There is a new sickness called Coronavirus.... The Coronavirus germs spread very easily. If the bad germ sticks on me, I can get sick. I need to wash my hands a lot, so that I can stay healthy. When I wash my hands I can sing Happy Birthday or count to 20. This will make sure my hands are clean and I stay healthy. Many places are closed, to help keep everyone safe from germs and help stay healthy. Swimming Pools, Gyms, Restaurants and Day programs are all closed. The workers at these places are busy cleaning everything to help get rid of the germs so it will be safe to return to when they open again. While they are cleaning, I can stay home. I will stay safe and healthy at home. I can do fun things at home and keep myself busy. I can read or look at books, watch my favourite shows, play games, do a puzzle or have a dance party. If I do need to leave the house, I need to follow the rules. Remember personal space around strangers. My support workers are there to help me, I can still hold their arm when we are outside. It is very important to remember to cough or sneeze into my elbow, throw my tissues in the garbage and to wash my hands. The government, the doctors and nurses are all working hard to make everything better for us. They will tell us when it will be safe to return to our day programs and our favourite activities. Right now, they want us to stay healthy. Everyone will be proud of me for staying healthy, staying safe and staying happy and calm.

Hello Thrive Families - I wanted to share this wonderful devotional by Max Lucado as I think it's a great reminder about guarding our thoughts at a time like this. In her short thirteen years Rebecca Taylor has endured more than 55 surgeries and medical procedures and approximately one thousand days in the hospital. Chrisyn, Rebecca's mom, talks about her daughter's health complications with the ease of a surgeon. The vocabulary of most moms includes phrases such as 'cafeteri...Continue reading
