Wear a name tag this morning! It’s a great opportunity to get to know each other within our church community. You can find the name tag sticker on your chair in the sanctuary – fill it out with a pen – or come a bit earlier before service and utilize our Name Tag Decoration Station.
Truth and Reconciliation Day Resources
Because September 30th is Truth and Reconciliation Day, we will be taking a moment in the service today to remember together as a community. There will be “Every Child Matters” buttons at the Welcome table that are free to take.
It’s a day as Canadians we honour and remember the survivors of residential schools and the children who never returned home. It’s a call for collective remembrance and a call of action towards justice and reconciliation. Here are some resources to learn, reflect, and engage as a community to take steps towards reconciliation with our Indigenous neighbours.

Swap & Shop: Start Saving your Items!
Swap and Shop is coming up in November, so start looking around your house for gently used items you no longer need. We are collecting small household goods, small furniture, games, toys, and puzzles. Click here for more details.
Please Be Mindful of Strong Scents
To help make our worship space accessible to everyone, please be mindful of perfumes, colognes, and other strongly scented products.
Are you Interested in Baptism?
Baptism is a meaningful step in the journey of following Jesus. It’s an outward sign of the inward choice to trust Him and follow His ways, just as Scripture invites us to do. If you’d like to learn more about baptism, or if you feel this may be your next step, we’d love to connect with you. Please reach out to Pastor Josh to start the conversation.
We’re Hiring!
As a church, we’re continuing to grow and invest in key areas of ministry – and we’re excited to share that we’re hiring for two part-time roles. If you (or someone you know) have a heart to serve and a passion for ministry, we’d love for you to take a look or help spread the word.
