You are welcome to join us in person or via our livestream this Sunday!

"Lord my God, when Your loved spilled over into creation You thought of me. I am from love, of love, for love."



- Jacqueline Bergan and S Marie Schwann


A very special warm welcome to those of you joining us here in person or via livestream this Sunday, October 23rd at 10:30 am - and to those who are tuning in to the recorded services later in the week! We particularly welcome the extended community of the Musgrave family, joining us in the celebration of the sacrament of Baptism. If you'd like to read the sermon, prayers and even the children's story, the Service Bulletin is linked below. 


Susan Toller will be leading the children out of the sanctuary for stories, games and crafts following “A time for all God’s Children” during the service. Please contact
Susan for more information and/or to confirm your child's participation (especially for children under 2, as we may need additional assistance). She looks forward to meeting with them!


Our service this week will be lead by our Minister, the Rev. Teresa Burnett-Cole. Our scripture reading comes from Luke 18:9-14, read by Brad Munro. James Caswell, our Minister of Music and the choir will lead us in music and song.


Our service bulletin with hymns, texts and announcements is linked here.
