Youth Takeover Sunday.
This Sunday, our Youth will be taking over our teaching the service! The teaching time will centre around the beautiful book I Am God’s Dream by Matthew Paul Turner. Through this children’s story, we’ll explore what it means to see ourselves through God’s eyes—to understand the unique purpose, vision, and calling that He has placed on each of our lives. We hope you can join us!
In many parts of the world, food security and livelihoods are affected by the impact of climate change. MCC and its partners are responding in communities with programming focused on promoting climate change adaptation and resilience, to grow more food through sustainable agriculture, promote alternative livelihoods and foster resilience.
We will explore one project in Zimbabwe focused on food security and climate-adaptation. We will watch a 15-minute documentary “Women will renew” about this community in Zimbabwe, and discuss and what we can do in response.
Additional activities for this Sunday, November 09, are:
Please head over to Church Center to sign up for the Cooking and Brunch at SHOW, or feel free to drop in for the other Sunday activities.
Further ahead in the month, we are hosting a few other activities:
Romans, Part VII: Our Sacred Sigh.
We’re coming to the end of our journey through Romans, and we’re not offering easy answers or skipping ahead to a happy ending. In a world of political polarization, climate anxiety, and systemic injustice, we often feel a sigh too deep for words—a feeling the first followers of Jesus in the Roman Empire knew all too well.
This week, we courageously sit in the sacred space of Lament.
We’ll discover that lament isn’t the end of the work—it’s the essential catalyst for true peacemaking and the birth pangs of a new creation.
