In-Person Services Postponed
On April 16 Premier Doug Ford extended the province-wide state of emergency and stay-at-home order to May 20. The increased lockdown measures include places of worship being capped at a maximum of 10 people indoors. In light of this new restriction, in-person Sunday services are cancelled. Congregants are invited to stay connected by watching Sunday services online, receiving our weekly Life Online, and reaching out to one another.
Although the church office will be closed, emails will be answered, mail retrieved and telephone calls will be forwarded to our Communications Administrator, Lindsay Robinson.
The Elder Team and ministry staff remain available to serve.
This Sunday
Speaker: Scott Burton
We are forgetful people. We can forget how desperate we are and merciful God is. We can forget that it’s God’s kindness that plucks us out of deep waters; not our ability to scramble onto his boat, grab an oar, and start paddling! The book of Colossians was written to anchor Christ-followers in the truth that Jesus alone is our Rescuer. This series is intended to ensure everyone is on board.
We will be posting virtual services on our Watch Online page. Join us online this Sunday at 10 am. Watch any of our previous sermon videos on the On Demand page.
Easter Presentation
Dare to Believe (Fall) Campaign
In April 2019 we celebrated the Grand Opening of our $3 million dollar building expansion. We now have an enlarged lobby and kitchen, new washrooms, an activity room and kids meeting room. We praise God for his provision in allowing this dream to become a reality. Of course, our ultimate objective is not an expanded facility, but having the space to advance the kingdom of Christ. We invite you to invest in the future with us by committing to donate towards the remaining $1.551 million dollar loan. Our goal is to receive a minimum of $160,000 each year over and above donations to the General Budget. By doing so, may God “bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work” (2 Conrinthians 9:8).
