🎄 Encounter Christmas: Carols by Candlelight 🕯️
December 7 3:00 pm
We are a dynamic church community that exists so people everywhere, of every generation, can encounter the transforming life, love and hope of Jesus.
A Christ-Centered church. Jesus is at the center of our faith and our lives.
A Spirit-Empowered church. The Holy Spirit is at the centre of our work and our walk.
We place others before ourselves and model the self-giving nature of Jesus.
We are a church that leaves love in our wake. Whatever we do, wherever we go, we seek to leave love in our wake.
We'd love to get to know you. Join us for our next service!
