The Passing of Brother Dhanpaul Dasrat 24-Nov-1949 - 25-Nov-2019

DHANPAUL DASRAT



24-Nov-1949 - 25-Nov-2019
The beloved husband to Amy, father to Savinitrie and Narine, brother to Dorothy and Beodat (Buddy), cousin to Samuel, uncle to Sushma, brother-in-Christ to many, and trusted friend to many more, Dhanpaul Dasrat, was born November 24, 1949, and returned to the Lord on November 25, 2019.

 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 (ESV) The Coming of the Lord
 13 But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope. 14 For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep. 15 For this we declare to you by a word from the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore encourage one another with these words.

DHANPAUL DASRAT

Good News, There Is Still Time!

Did you make plans today and decided to skip church because you did not have time to do both?

The Good News is having changed clocks back an hour, you have time for both! 

Or at least take time for the Lord and use that extra hour to have a second cup of coffee or tea, pick up your Bible and spend an hour with Him. Have a Blessed Sunday!

Well, it is that time of year. BLCF Cafe announces that the date for our Fall FUNdraiser is set to October 23, 2019, at 6:30 PM. Support the BLCF Cafe’s cause of serving dinner to Toronto’s homeless and marginalized, right in the heart of the city.
Why not come and invite a friend for an evening of great Bluegrass music performed by Coldwater Roots, who are able to put the FUN into FUNdraising? BLCF Cafe receives no Corporate Sponsorship and receives no Government funding, we depend solely on the generosity of private donors. So, help support a worthwhile cause of feeding the homeless in Toronto by volunteering some of your time or donating to the BLCF Cafe, or better yet do both!

Obituary


  An insight into the wonderful generosity of Maria Teresa Pereira. Donations for Maria will be used to help honour her life in continuing to support what was meaningful to her. In memory of Maria Teresa Pereira Donations to the Christmas fund for the Homeless BLCF Café  BMO Bank of Montreal Acc. 2795 8940180   

Teresa was very involved in the BLCF. Café, every Wednesday she made sure she was there not only to serve their meals for the homeless but also the word of God was always spoken through her lips among them with such joy.   She loved to work side by side with Sophie and Margaret and Ron. They all navigate a great ship with kindness and dignity. This fund is to carry on the Christmas spirit for gifts of the less fortunate. Teresa held this dear to her heart. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~     
Teresa estava muito envolvida no Café BLCF todas Quarta-feira, ela se certificava de que estava lá não apenas para servir suas refeições para os sem-teto. A palavra de Deus sempre foi dita através de seus lábios para eles com tanta alegria. Ela adorava trabalhar lado a lado com Sophie, Margret e Ron. Todos eles navegam em um grande navio com bondade e dignidade. Esse fundo e para continuar com o Espirito de Natal pelos presentes dos menos afortunados. Teresa manteve isto querido no coração.
