Most of the time our church is gathered either on zoom only or in person and on zoom together. February 15 is different. This week we are the church scattered as we will not be gathering together in either way.
It is a holiday weekend for family day and so we take this weekend as an opportunity to rest, regroup, visit family, do other things.
If you want to meet up with someone from the bridge for a walk or brunch or whatever there's nothing keeping you from that, go for it. Perhaps connect with someone in the heartbeat app to arrange it. If you would like to connect with this online private group because you are a part of our community - then contact Sarah for an invite.
Have a lovely week and we'll see you back IN PERSON+ on February 22.

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.
