Some call them announcements and dismiss them the way we dismiss the commercials in a good TV show. But if you see these as opportunities for greater teaching, greater fellowship and greater service; then you’ll look at these things quite differently.

It’s unfortunate when a great event takes place at a local church and only the people from that church show up. All the events listed here are open to the broader community. We screen each one and feel these events have potential interest to a wider body.

If you have questions or wish to submit an event, send it to searchlight[at]nexicom.net Searchlight Bookstore in Cobourg provides the resources for us to be kept up to date on what is happening.

If you have comments, direct them to searchlight[at]nexicom.net

Our rapidly deteriorating website for the retail store is located at www.searchlightbooks.ca It also has a church directory, but isn’t kept up to date, as we keep forgetting the codes.

A similar website for Brockville is being re-launced mid August this year.
