December 29th, 2024 - Pondering
On this last Sunday of 2024, we're invited to adopt a practice from Mary, and to "ponder". The Greek explanation of the word "ponder" involves tossing things around, throwing things together, comparing them to try and better understand them. So before we pack Christmas away for another year, let's ponder the ancient Christmas story to discover how best we can live it out in the coming new year.

December 24th, 2024 - Christmas Eve
Просмотров 4812 часов назад
You might be feeling like a half-sunk Theodore Tugboat this Christmas (as was seen on the news last week). The Christmas story assures us that the hope, peace, joy, and love of the manger are available for everyone - and are often made visible through us. Join the Christmas Eve service to hear the ancient scriptures, sing the traditional carols, listen to some special music, and discover how th...
December 22nd, 2024 - 4th Sunday of Advent: Love
Просмотров 2816 часов назад
When we hold a new baby in our arms, our entire demeanour changes; our face softens, our voice rises a tone or two, as we rock back and forth speaking love over this little being. In today's service, we discuss how Jesus' entire ministry was based on love as he spoke words of love over us. But the love of which he spoke was not just sentimental and emotional, it was revolutionary - made visible...
December 15th, 2024 - Third Sunday of Advent: Joy
Просмотров 4414 дней назад
Sometimes, joy is a choice. This is illustrated in the two stories from the book of Luke that we examine in today's service, which describe two different responses to joy. These stories teach us that in a world filled with turmoil, wars, and unrest - we can choose joy. When facing disappointment, grief, and worry - we can choose joy. We don't deny the pain and challenges, but we can choose to f...

We light the candle of peace, we hear the scripture story of angels proclaiming peace and goodwill for all people, but what does that peace look like? Today, we continue our From the Manger sermon series, examining that question and hearing how Jesus, the One born in the House of Bread and laid in a bread-box, teaches how we can work together to satisfy our world's hunger for peace.

December 1, Advent Hope
Просмотров 5528 дней назад
Our Advent journey has begun in an unexpected way. The dangerous road conditions and sketchy hydro forced us to cancel this morning's in person church service - but worship continues. Here is a very pared down worship service as we celebrate together the beginning of Advent and the start of our From the Manger sermon series.
November 17th - Do Unto Others sermon series
Просмотров 30Месяц назад
Humility is not normally a word that we associate with celebrities such as Taylor Swift. But there is another definition of "humility" that "Swifties" might be tapping into, and that may help us too as we strive live out Jesus' teaching to Do Unto Others.

On this day of remembrance, we also begin a new sermon series called Do Unto Others, with a call for us to engage in radical kindness to retain the freedom for the future that was fought for us in the past.
November 3rd - All Saints Sunday
Просмотров 47Месяц назад
Today we honour those who have served as a "saint" for us. They will likely never have a stained-glass window dedicated in their memory or be immortalized in print; however, their legacy of faith, hope, and love will live on in each one of us - and will be passed along to those after us. You're invited to think of your "saints" as you join in the service today.
Oct. 27 2024 - God Never Said That, pt. 2
Просмотров 442 месяца назад
We conclude our God Never Said That sermon series examining a phrase that we may have heard - or said - during times of difficulty, but these words can sometimes be more harmful than helpful. They are: "God will never give you more than you can handle." But guess what...God never said that. In today's service we look at the supposed origin of this mis-quote and discuss other, more helpful, ways...
October 20th - God Never Said That sermon series
Просмотров 722 месяца назад
There are some sayings in our vocabulary that are quoted as if they come from the Bible - but they don't. Today we begin a short two-week sermon series called God Never Said That in which we examine a few of these mis-placed quotes to help us be mindful of what we hear, say, and believe when it comes to scripture. A good rule of thumb - if it isn't focused on justice, compassion, and love, then...
October13th - Thanksgiving Sunday
Просмотров 352 месяца назад
A day such a this can be complicated. We are filled with thankfulness and gratitude for all that we have, but also guilt, sorrow, and grief for those who have not. So what do we do with those complex emotions? We worship - and together, with Divine guidance, we discover solutions, opportunities, and possibilities that help us turn our thanksgiving into thankful living.
October 6th,- World Communion Sunday

We gather with churches around the world in a radical act of unity on this World Communion Sunday. While the liturgy is spoken in different languages, and the bread used differs in form, the Spirit of Peace that unites us is the same. In a time when there is so much that divides us, it is such a gift to celebrate the sacrament that unites us. You are welcome to join from home using bread and ju...
September 29th - Why Worship sermon series
Просмотров 393 месяца назад
All of us have baggage. We carry around metaphorical suitcases filled with things like regret, worry, and uncertainty. When we come together for the Prayers of the People during our worship services, we have the opportunity to unpack our "baggage" and repack our suitcases with hope. We examine the story of King David in today's service to help us in this task.
