Hymn Stories – September 2024
Cecil Frances Alexander wrote the hymn, “All Things Bright and Beautiful” as a song for children to explain the phrases and truths of the Christian faith expressed in the Apostles’ Creed. This series of hymns was published in 1848 in “Hymns for Little Children.” It became one of the most successful hymn-publishing projects in history, going through over one hundred editions.

MEMO: September 01, 2024
To: All Menno Place Staff
From: Jessy Manhas, Manager of People & Culture
Date: Aug 28, 2024
Re: September 01, 2024
As you may be aware, the Abbotsford Nagar Kirtan Parade is scheduled for September 1, 2024. In the past, we have noticed a pattern of increased sick calls on this day, followed by staff working on the statutory holiday the next day.
Due to this recurring pattern, we will be requiring proof of illness/doctor’s note as per the Collective Agreement from anyone who calls in sick on September 1, 2024. Additionally, if you call in sick on September 1, 2024 and then come to work on the statutory holiday, September 2, 2024, an investigation will be initiated by your Manager with a Shop Steward. Failure to comply will result in disciplinary action.
This procedure is being enforced strictly, as there have been numerous shift cancellations which is putting Menno Place at risk of not being able to provide safe resident care.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in this matter.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact your manager.
Regards,
Jessy Manhas
Manager of People & Culture
