💜 Life Plan Goals in Action! 💚
In October, Matthew and his friends Andre and Jamie headed to Niagara Falls for an unforgettable day. This trip was a big milestone for Matthew, as it’s been one of his Life Plan Goals, and he made the most of it.
Matthew loved every moment, from rides and arcade games to glow-in-the-dark golf and the wax museum.
His favourite?
The Ferris Wheel, where he could take in the incredible views.🎡
💪 Andre showed amazing courage by stepping out of his comfort zone and trying new activities. Way to go, Andre!
😂 Jamie, as always, brought the laughter and joy. His excitement could be heard on every ride.
This adventure is a perfect example of how LCDS supports people in achieving their goals and creating meaningful experiences. In fact, in 2024–2025, 100% of adults in the LCDS community had an up-to-date Life Plan, which includes goals like Matthews, because every goal matters!

Honouring Remembrance Day
As we pause today to remember the brave individuals across Canada who served and sacrificed for our country, we’re proud to share how our LCDS community is marking this important day.
Bill created a beautiful Remembrance Day wreath during Community Connections as a tribute to Canada’s fallen heroes.
Thank you, Bill, for reminding us of the power of remembrance through art.
We will remember them.

Remembrance Day: Honouring Our Local Heroes
Today, on Remembrance Day, we pause to honour the brave men and women from Petrolia and surrounding communities who served in the Canadian Armed Forces and made the ultimate sacrifice.
As part of this annual tribute, 566 memorial crosses have been placed at Hillsdale Cemetery, Oil City Cemetery, and Plympton-Wyoming Enniskillen Cemetery. Each cross represents a life lost in service and stands as a powerful symbol of remembrance.
We’re proud to share that these crosses were handcrafted by Petrolia Enterprises, an LCDS Social Enterprise specializing in woodworking, restoration, and stake making. It’s our honour to support this meaningful tradition and help ensure that the legacy of our local veterans lives on.
Today and always. We will remember.
