Folk Fiesta

June 16, 2023

Just a friendly reminder that the church’s Folk Fiesta fundraiser is this Friday. This is a fundraiser for the summer trip to CLAY for our IgnYte youth group. The suggested donation is $10 for children and $15 for adults. Some of our friends from St. Laurence Anglican will also be joining us.

It starts at 6 o’clock and lasts until 8 o’clock. Dinner will consist of “deconstructed nachos”, along with a few sides. Then Jason Wood and Friends will perform for us after that.

We hope to see you there to support our young people while enjoying an evening of food, conversation, and folk music.

Tenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

June 11, 2023

Purity has its place. We like to make sure our drinking water is pure. We enjoy the sound of pure audio. We love the taste of pure Orange Juice. But in the Christian life? Well, thats where our penchant for purity can become problematic. As some confused pharisees discover to their chagrin in our gospel this morning. And some others in desperate straits discover to their joy.

Holy Trinity

June 4, 2023

Today we celebrate the Holy Trinity. With the emphasis on celebration. Because comprehending it isn’t really an option. Although, it does have something to teach us. Yes, about God. But also about us. And what it means to live together with everything and everyone God has made. 

Today’s worship service will be live-streamed on our YouTube channel at 10:30 am. Join us live, or watch the video here at a later time.

Pentecost

May 28, 2023

Pentecost Sunday. The birthday of the church. The gift of the Holy Spirit. A celebration of diversity. The day God lit a fire under the butts (OK, over the heads) of the disciples. The perfect day to put the youth in charge! And so we celebrate with our IngYte youth ministry today and look ahead to what the Spirit has in store for the future of the church.

Today’s worship service will be live-streamed on our YouTube channel at 10:30 am. Join us live, or watch the video here at a later time.

Ascension of Our Lord

May 21, 2023

This Sunday is the last Sunday of the Easter season. We are celebrating the feast of the ascension of our Lord. A good subtitle for this day might be “Up, up, but not away!” The first disciples might have thought otherwise, if not for those two men (angels?) in white robes. And their sermon is one we still need to hear. 

Today’s worship service will be live-streamed on our YouTube channel at 10:30 am. Join us live, or watch the video here at a later time.

Sixth Sunday in Easter

May 14, 2023

As we make the transition from the season of Easter to Pentecost Sunday we hear today the first hints of Jesus’s promise of the Holy Spirit. But there’s no tongues of flame or loud rushing winds here. Quite the opposite. Just an advocate who comes alongside us with hardly a sound at all. And yet, perhaps these words about the Spirit are among the most powerful we could ever want to hear. Join us as we listen in to Jesus trying to comfort his soon to be orphaned disciples (and us).

Today’s worship service will be live-streamed on our YouTube channel at 10:30 am. Join us live, or watch the video here at a later time.

Fifth Sunday of Easter

May 7, 2023

“I am the way, and the truth, and the life.” If there was a list of Jesus’s greatest hits, this verse would certainly be on it. It’s one of those statements that tugs at our spirits on such a deep level. And yet the disciples, like us, struggle to fully grasp it. And so we return with Jesus today to that upper room on that night in which he was betrayed. And there to try, once again, to plumb the depths of this hauntingly good news.

Today’s worship service will be live-streamed on our YouTube channel at 10:30 am. Join us live, or watch the video here at a later time.

Fourth Sunday of Easter

April 30, 2023

Jesus the Good Shepherd. Perhaps the most comforting Biblical image of them all. And not without reason. But there’s an edginess to this image we don’t often recognize. And turns out its a quality we can’t do without. At least if we want a vital and living faith. Join us as we listen for the voice of our Shepherd Lord leading us in some strange but right paths for his name’s sake.

Today’s worship service will be live-streamed on our YouTube channel at 10:30 am. Join us live, or watch the video here at a later time.

Third Sunday of Easter

April 23, 2023

“Life is a highway” sang Canadian musician Tom Cochrane. Sometimes a highway though joy; often a highway clouded by struggles and confusion. And too often its a highway we travel alone…or so it seems. Our gospel today is about a road trip where two lonely travellers find themselves in the company of a stranger who has good news to share. Good news for us too about the roads which we frequently find ourselves travelling.

Today’s worship service will be live-streamed on our YouTube channel at 10:30 am. Join us live, or watch the video here at a later time.

Holy Hilarity Sunday

April 16, 2023

This Sunday we celebrate Holy Hilarity Sunday (technically the Second Sunday of Easter). We’ll share some jokes and play a little game during the service. If you have a church friendly joke to share bring it along and we’ll pass you the mic.

Today’s worship service will be live-streamed on our YouTube channel at 10:30 am. Join us live, or watch the video here at a later time.
