We Live to Celebrate the Life of God
- Through awareness and response to God's presence
- Through commitment and communion with Jesus Christ
- Through oneness and praise in the Holy Spirit
The Bible instructs us to meet together regularly to celebrate the life of God (Hebrews 10:25), praising..."Him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before His glorious presence without fault and with great joy - to the only God and Saviour be glory, majesty, power, and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forever more! Amen" (Jude 24&25)
Celebrations- On Sunday, our 10:00 am celebrations at our Central Campus offer a blended worship experience, sharing, prayer, and the application of God's truth for living our lives.
- And at 1:00 pm on Sundays we also have our Spanish Service at our Central Campus.
At all our worship services we enjoy God and each other and we are strengthened and encouraged by both.
Children's Celebrations
We encourage families to worship together and we provide a children's church as part of our regular celebrations. There is a pre-school program for children 3-5 years of age and an elementary program for children grades 1-6. These programs involve music, puppets/drama, and creative teaching styles that allow children to learn and enjoy worship. Nursery care is provided during the morning celebrations.
Spanish Ministry
Living at the heart of a multicultural city, we are pleased to offer a worship service in Spanish each Sunday at 1:00 p.m.. Our Spanish-speaking pastor offers excellent leadership and care.
Music Ministry
Music is an important part of our worship and a meaningful way for people to be involved.
- Sanctuary Choir: leads regularly at our 10:00 a.m. celebration and at other special celebration services.
- Handbell Choir: performs at various celebration events in our church and community.
- Music Makers: our children (grades 3 to 6) learn to play instruments, sing, participate in our worship celebrations, and perform in various musical events.
- Worship Bands: lead regularly in our 5:45 p.m. celebrations and perform in other events.
- Men's Chorus: a men's fellowship that practices regularly and enjoys ministering in our church and around our province.
Special Celebrations
Throughout the year special celebration opportunities are provided. These are deeply appreciated and enjoyed by many in our city. These include a Christmas Eve Candlelight Service, Easter Sacred Concerts, and a variety of special choral, musical, and dramatic presentations. These celebration events enrich our life together and provide great opportunities to invite friends, family members, and seekers to come and enjoy.
Hearing Enhancement - Handicapped Access
These are available to assist those who are challenged in these particular ways so they can celebrate with us.
"TRUE CELEBRATION
- quickens the conscience by the holiness of God;
- feeds the mind with the truth of God;
- ignites the imagination by the beauty of God;
- opens the heart to the love of God;
- devotes the will to the purpose of God." (William Temple)
