Faith at Home
The last two years have been tough on our kids and teens, as well as their families. On October 27, we will be hosting a parent discussion with Dr. Shawn Reynolds, a psychologist in our congregation who is also the father of two teenagers.
The discussion will include strategies related to anxiety and building resiliency, along with general family self-care strategies as we manage stress at this stage of the pandemic. Register here.
Baptism
When we re-orient our lives around living and loving like Jesus, we are made new. Baptism is a celebration of this commitment and a time to share how God is transforming us. Baptism is this picture of how the gospel changes lives. It’s a remembering of that moment or season where you said ‘yes’ to God – His love, His forgiveness, His purpose for your life.
Baptism Prep Classes will be held in person in the Fireside Room after each service on October 30/31 and November 6/7. Registration not required.
International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church
Join us as we pray with others from our Church Family for the Persecuted Church around the World. You will have the opportunity to hear personal testimonies from parts of the world where Christians are being targeted, pray for specific requests, and connect with others from the church family.
Sunday, November 7, 2021 from 7—8:30 pm on Zoom. Register at spac.ca/acalltoprayer.
Serving
As we look towards building new teams for the fall there are many opportunities to get involved. Go to spac.ca/serve to learn more.
We believe that actively serving others brings us closer to God and reminds us to love like he does. Through serving, you'll use the unique ways that God has gifted you to help create welcoming environments where he can change lives.
