WINTER GLOVES NEEDED
Gloves For Those Outside
Baby it’s cold outside is not just a fun holiday tune, it’s the truth here in Canada and it hits even closer to home for those unhoused or who spend most of their day outside. Please consider joining Be The Light Ministry in collecting new warm winter gloves for our friends who attend our Sunday afternoon meal in downtown Windsor. Donations can be made anytime at Encounter Church at the donation bin in the lobby or after hours at the deck box by the main doors.

APOLOGETICS COURSE
Beginning January 17th, 2026
Christ calls His believers to be able to "defend" what they believe about Him and why? Starting Saturday January 17th, 2026 at 10am we will be launching an Apologetics Course. "Apologetics" is the study of defending the faith. We will look at methodology, contrast worldviews and their individual foundations, and provide a framework from which we can have conversations with people of all walks of life, while fulfilling the great commission "of making disciples"! Sign up today.
