IN PERSON white words on bluegreen light scatter background

This Sunday we are together in person at the Legacy Building in Abbotsford, and simultaneously on Zoom

Sarah Pickering will be speaking and we'll be exploring our ideas of Godde through the medium of art. (Absolutely no art skill required).

Coffee will be ready to go at 10:20am (and again in the coffee break). Please help us reduce waste by bringing your own cup or mug.


If you are joining on zoom it will be good (but not essential) for you to have colours i.e. crayons, pens, pencils, or paint so you can take part in the process as well. We'll let you in at around 10:20 so we can make sure it is all working for you and so we can visit for a few minutes ahead of getting going at 10:30. 



Contact the office for an invite.

Philip and Brenda Janz and Steve Mitchinson will lead us in sung worship you can find the playlists on YouTube or Spotify and there is a lyrics page that you can download on the Sung Worship page of our site.

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.
