Looking for a few precious moments of peace and perspective in your busy week? We hold worship services each Sunday at 10:30am.
Our worship ministry has many components that are updated each week. We encourage you to "mix and match" the pieces to find out what works best for you.
WORSHIP UPDATE
-
On Sunday, August 9th, the second Sunday of August, we hope you will join us early for "Singing Solidarity." This gathering time will be approximately 15 minutes to sing hymns chosen to inspire hope and resilience in our challenging world. Worship will begin at 10:30am.

While Rev. Dr. Joshua Lawrence, our Minister of Worship & Congregational Life, will return from vacation next week, we are pleased to have our very own Jess Huber lead our worship this Sunday. Jess has been a member of our congregation for a number of years and is now a Candidate for Ordained Ministry in the United Church of Canada. This Sunday he will preach a sermon entitled “Wondering and Wandering” based on this week's reading of Romans 10: 5-15. Our Old Testament Reading is a familiar story from Genesis 37: 1-4 & 12-28, which will be read by Paul Merritt.

At the conclusion of our "Singing Solidarity" time, Minister of Music, Chris Fischer will open the service by leading the congregation in MV #161 "I Have Called You by Your Name." This hymn will serve as both Gathering and Candle Lighting Music. Chris will be joined by Claire Jones-Fright. Claire will bless our worship with her musical gifts of both voice and violin. Claire & Chris will play G.F. Handel's "Sonata No. 4 in D Major" for this week's Musical Reflection and close our service with "Gavotte" by Jean-Philippe Rameau. Our Musical Offering selection will be "How Beautiful Are the Feet" from Handel's 'Messiah.' Additional congregational hymns on Sunday morning will be VU #409 "Morning Has Broken" VU #389 "God is Here" and VU #691 "Though Ancient Walls."

"Deep Dive" provides an audio commentary on the most recent Sunday message. Listen to a thoughtful discussion by using this link and once there, go to the STUDIO section and open the commentary link there. (Hint: If you're using a handheld device, be patient. After you hit the "play" icon it takes a couple of minutes for the audio to load before it starts playing.)
"PostScript," is "taking a sabbatical" for a few weeks. Watch for its return following the Sept. 13 Homecoming Service.
Ready for a break from all your screen time? Why not join either the Fall or Winter/Spring session of Bible Study on Thursdays at 11am? It's much more than Bible Study, though. We discuss the message of the Bible through the lens of a book or commentary. Contact the church office for details. We'd love to see you in person!
