We are together on zoom this Sunday.
Sarah Pickering will be speaking on the next beatitude as we near the end of this section of the Sermon on the Mount. The beatitude is: Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:10
We will start at 10:30am and we'll be ready to let you in to the gathering at or just before then. It's a great place for a shared conversation, and we hope you will join us.
Contact the office for an invite.
We are together on zoom this weekend and sung worship is something we save for our in person gatherings. Instead, Sarah will choose a selection of songs that you can listen to and sing along with ahead of our time together. You can find them on YouTube or Spotify.
Welcome to the podcast!
The episodes contain the visio divina/lectio divina/guided meditations/prayers, communion, and messages from our weekly gatherings. We hope that you'll join us live on zoom or in person but if you aren't able to do that then we have the audio only podcast or Vimeo where you can watch the message part.

We will be celebrating Pride Sunday on the last Sunday in September. Stacey (see below) will be our guest speaker that week. There will be cake and other fun extras. We hope you can join us.
A little back story: On Sunday, October 3, 2021 we marked our churches decision to be an inclusive, welcoming and affirming community of people who are making it our business to live out our faith in love.
Stacey Chomiak is an LGBTQ Christian Speaker, artist, author and art director and was our guest speaker and we loved hearing her story.
If you were not able to join us that week, here's a recording of the gathering. It was wonderful. You can watch on Vimeo or find that episode by date on our podcast.
