Advent I – Hope, Sunday November 28th, 2021
May we approach Advent this season
as if it were our first-ever Advent.
May we come to God new and vulnerable,
with open and willing hearts, ready for fresh insights.
May we find Jesus wherever there is distress
and rely on the Holy Spirit to be with us
on every step of our Advent journey. Amen.

Our weekly service will be shared as a livestream on YouTube and Zoom as well as in-person. Registration is no longer required for in-person worship, but proof of vaccination must be shown each time, masks must be worn at all times, and we encourage you to distance from anyone you do not consider part of your bubble.
Last Sunday the A/V system decided to take a vacation, meaning we couldn’t livestream – or use the sound system in the sanctuary. This past week our A/V team have been busy making sure that the system is back and ready for Advent!
We start Advent by lighting the candle of hope. Where in the world do we find Hope these days?

Last week the Director’s of Music from Northlea and Leaside United Churches got the choirs together to rehearse for the Carols by Candlelight service to be held on Dec. 12th at 7pm via Zoom and YouTube. Here are some pictures captured of the rehearsal from photographer Murrary Fenner. Many thanks to Matthew Boutda and David Jafelice for organizing this joint singing venture!
