  1. New Sermon Series – Living the Good News in Our Community

Starting October 5th and running through November 23rd we will be engaging in discovering what it means to live the good news of Jesus in the community in which our church finds itself and in our everyday lives. We have both a vision and a mission statement as a church as well as a theme we have adopted for the year. (See the front page of the weekly bulletin.) The goal is to move from statements that sound good in principle to living them out. Pastors Bill and Don, along with Rev. Mak, will share in the preaching in this series, laying out the basis for why this is important and giving some practical examples of how we can effectively live that out. Our adult Sunday School will follow up during the same period with a study on The Art of Neighbouring. The purpose is to take what we are learning to a personal level in living the good news out in the communities in which we live. Come ready to be challenged as well as to grow in what it means to be a follower of Jesus.
