SUMMARY:Christmas with the St. John's Choir
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for an evening of Christmas Music: \nMonday\, December 18th \n7:30pm to 8:30pm NL \n7:00pm to 8:00pm Labrador \nFamily and Friends are Invited. \nThe ST. JOHN`S CHOIR of St. John’s\, Newfoundland and Labrador is a true adult community choir whose members represent a broad section of St. John’s and its surrounding communities. The choir’s age group ranges from early twenties to seniors and its members are from all walks of life and educational levels. While some members have music degrees\, many others do not read music. Some have little or no choral experience\, but then\, many have experience in multiple choirs and groups. \nTwenty-five years ago the St. John’s Choir rose from the ashes of the defunct Extension Choir of Memorial University of Newfoundland when several of the extension choir groups persevered to keep their own choirs singing. Choir members have fond memories of their first director\, Dr. Ignatius Rumbolt. After the Choir’s first year\, Mrs. Patricia Young became a long term director and “Musical Mother”. \nOver the years\, the Choir has been guided by several well known directors. Currently\, Stephen Candow is the Artistic Director and Dr. Philip Roberts\, is the Accompanist\, Co-conductor and Chamber Choir Director. This year the St. John’s Choir is featuring the St. John’s Chamber Choir\, Bella Nova Choir\, Elizabeth Brennan (Director) and Etienne Gendron\, Guest Percussionist. Choir performs two main concerts a year\, Christmas and spring. It has participated in Festival 500 events\, the Kiwanis Music Festival\, at numerous national conventions\, local fund raisers\, and telethons. \nThe Choir is completely self-sufficient financially\, raising all of ther own funds. The Choir has a professional Director and Accompanist\, sings in four-part harmony and has a large and varied repertoire of songs ranging from Broadway show tunes to Classical pieces\, gospel to Newfoundland folk songs; and\, spirituals to popular music. Carolynn Spurvey is Vice-President of the Board of Directors. \nTo Register for this marvelous evening of music\, please click the link below.  \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcoduqgrTwsHNz0q41Y2kaqxfZrfe1dPfeP

SUMMARY:INCOME TAX\, BENEFITS\, CREDITS\, & OTHER CRA SERVICES
DESCRIPTION:Benefits and credits can make a big difference to people in our community. The CRA’s CVITP and Benefits Outreach Program help people and the organizations that serve them to learn about the benefits of tax-filing\, the benefits and credits they may be eligible for\, and the supports available to help with completing an income tax and benefits return.  \nAs 2023 is closing\, our thoughts will soon turn to the dread of filing our annual tax returns. Once again\, NLPSPA and the member associations of the Coalition have engaged with representatives from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) to host an information session for seniors on income tax\, benefits\, credits\, how to prepare your taxes\, how to avoid payment interruptions\, and what services CRA can provide.   In addition to addressing these topics\, other subjects will also be addressed\, such as GST/HST credit\, disability tax credit\, pension income splitting\, and medical expenses\, etc.  CRA will also provide information on the Community Volunteer Income Tax Program\, online services and answer general questions you might have. \nOur presenter for this event will be Heather Angnatok from the CRA location in Happy Valley/Goose Bay\, Labrador. \nFollowing the presentation\, there will be time for questions and answers. \nEveryone is welcome for this most timely presentation.   \nPlease click on the link below to register for this event. \nRegister in advance for this meeting: \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcscOGhqD0qG9BITSP7aCYmnv4aFTfpVOU \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.
