Hi everyone!

Like so many other households in our community, COVID-19 is working its way through our home this week. Corrine and I received a whole bunch of kind messages by email and text, and we’re grateful for the encouragement. I’m especially thankful for everyone’s flexibility in adjusting last weekend’s gathering plans at the very last minute, and to District Superintendent Brent Trask and his willingness to step in and teach a timely message on prayer. There’s been lots of enthusiastic feedback about the service and Brent’s talk, and if you missed it, it lives on here.

Our B-I-B-L-E- series subtitle has been “Knowing the story OF the Bible helps anyone embrace the story IN it.” On Saturday and Sunday I’ll take another run at the conclusion. As we conclude I’ll flip the series subtitle over and finish things by explaining the entire storyline of the Bible in just a few minutes. If you tune in or show up, I can just about promise that this content is going to make the Scriptures more accessible and understandable. Hope to have you with us!

God bless and keep you,

Alpha is a place to explore the Christian faith with others. Each session has time for connection, a short video, and space to discuss and ask questions. No question is to complex or to simple.

Over a 10-week journey with others, we'll explore questions of life, faith, and who Jesus is—and how it all comes together. It is here, that you’ll begin to develop on-going community with those you meet in Alpha!

This Alpha session is taking place in person at Millbourne Community Life Centre starting February 7th through to April 4th at 7 pm. We would love for you to join us. Register at https://spac.ca/millbourne_alpha.

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 weekend will be February 26th and 27th. Baptism Prep Classes will be held in person in the Fireside Room after each service on February 12th, 13th, 19th, and 20th. Registration is not required.

If you are new to this community and would like to meet others and some of the pastoral team, we would love to meet you!

On February 13th after the 11 am service, we will meet IN PERSON. Since we aren't able to eat together, you will be given a Nitza's Pizza coupon for you to enjoy at another time.  

Registration is required for either event and you can do so by heading to spac.ca/pizzawiththepastor.
