There’s a bit of conventional wisdom that has been appearing and reappearing in conversations I’ve been a part of this past season. Put it in a sentence, it goes like this:

Each faith, tradition, religion, and spirituality contains a part of spiritual truth, but none can see the whole truth.

This can be illustrated with the famous ‘Parable of the Blind Men and The Elephant’. It goes something like this...

God loves the world. That includes our pets!

Come over for a special Blessing of the Animals services where we'll praise our Creator God for the gift of our pets. Expect a short service with a lot of love, frienship, and treats for folks and pets!

Join us at 10am for the Blessings, coffee and treasts right after.

Celebrant:

The Rev. Seth Enriquez

Hymn:

All Creatues of our God & King (Link)

To keep up to date with the new songs we're singing this year, listen to them on our church worship playlist here.

- What is Faith is a short but insightful video of Christian Philosopher and Theologian William Lane Craig describing a biblical understanding of faith.

- How to Judge the Church is a short video that addresses the question 'How can we take Christianity seriously, if Christians have so often departed from the tune of Jesus?' 

An honest faith doesn't assume we're good enough, it admits we get things wrong and trusts Jesus to heal our brokeness.

The Bible is God's written word, given to us by the Holy Spirit as a revelation of God's acts in history and our final authority in matters of faith and practice. 

So we're making time to meet weekly to read the bible, explore and share on our weekly passage, and to grow in faith and friendship.

Come over every Tuesday at 4:30pm at The Rectory (406 Buffalo St) with Seth & Brit as they host our bible study! 

We're here for you.
