Fifth Sunday of Easter: May 15, 2022

May 13, 2022

Worship with us in person or on-line (via YouTube)

as we continue to celebrate the Season of Easter!

Happy Easter! Christ is Risen, Risen indeed!


We continue to worship in a hybrid fashion with some joining in person in the Sanctuary, and some coming together online via livestream or recording. A warm welcome to those of you joining us here!


Our service this week will be lead by Coordinating Minister, Rev. Teresa Burnett Cole, with a message about the barriers and fences (sometimes invisible) that separate us one from the other. Our scripture reading comes from Acts 11:1-18 James Caswell, Minister of Music, will be joined by the choir to lead us in music and song.


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


Join in on the virtual offering plate for M&S, Outreach & GSJ operational needs! If donating online, you can indicate on the 'paypal' page where you want your gift to be dedicated to. 


You can watch the video of the service here on YouTube. Please consider 'subscribing' to the GSJ YouTube channel and use the 'notification' (the 'bell' symbol on the GSJ YouTube channel) to be notified when we go live. If, for any reason, the webcast is interrupted you should still be able to connect by looking for the red 'live' thumb-nail image. 


Coffee Hour: Every Sunday at 1 pm, you are invited to our virtual Coffee Hour! Click here to join by Zoom. But this week (for those of us in Ottawa!), even if you are not yet comfortable joining us indoors for worship, consider joining the outdoor post-service coffee hour. Starting ca. 11:30am, there will be coffee, treats and a chance to meet and greet one another in person. Public health will be top of mind. Many thanks to the WIGs for organizing! We hope to see you there!
