Les samedi et dimanche 2 et 3 novembre 2002, l'assemblée Unie Summerlea et l'assemblée
Presbytérienne St. Andrew's ont fêté des anniversaires d'occupation de l'édifice de l'église à
225 50e avenue à Lachine. Pour l'assemblée Unie Summerlea la fin de semaine a marqué 50 ans dans l'édifice, qu'on a dédié au mois d'octobre 1952. Pour l'assemblée Presbytérienne St. Andrew's la fin de semaine a marqué un an à cette édifice, ayant quitté leur ancien édifice rue Sherbrooke à Lachine en automne 2001. Les fêtes ont compris un souper et des divertissements le samedi soir et un service d'anniversaire le dimanche matin. |

(Affichée 19 fév. 2003) Dear Tom & Lois & all Summerlea Folk, I am sorry it has taken me so long to say "Thank you" for the lovely evening of the celebration of the 50th anniversary of "Summerlea Church". I had a wonderful time seeing people I hadn't seen in many years. I also thank you for the lovely rose & beautiful pen I received. I am using it now. With all the excitement of getting ready to leave for Florida shortly after the celebration I forgot my manners. I also want to say "Thank you" to "St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church" for the delicious meal they prepared. I am writing this note from Largo, Florida and it is very cold here but I guess it isn't as cold as it is in Montreal & Ottawa my home. I also want to tell you the entertainment was "Super", there is a lot of talent still in the Lachine area. Thank you all again & God Bless Summerlea & St. Andrew's. Fondly, Mary Ann Walker, Ottawa & Florida |
Hi, I thought I should write and say Happy Birthday to Summerlea. 1952 was a marker year for me as well as not only was Summerlea the new church in the community but I was the new kid on the block. July 1, 1952 I arrived, and Summerlea has been part of my life ever since. I am now living in Denver Colorado, the "Mile High City" but despite the miles between here and Lachine, it is always nice to hear of the activities back home. I can attest that the welcome mat is always out at Summerlea as whenever I am home its always a pleasure to attend church and speak with all who are there. It's part of coming home. Summerlea has been a large part of my life and I treasure the memories wherever I go. Congratulations to all at Summerlea, Many Happy Returns. Lewis Greig Aurora Colorado |
To the folks at Summerlea: We wanted to take a moment to say what a wonderful experience it was to attend your 50th anniversary festivities at Summerlea. The food was great and the entertainment was second to none. However, it was hard to beat the pleasure of seeing friends once again who were very much a part of the Church when we attended 25 years ago. The church is going through some changes now but we know that the people of Summerlea can cope with change and the Church will remain a strong one within the community. Finally, thanks to the Lynn’s for being great hosts. All the best Ruth & Bud Mann Markham, ON |
