"Because all of God’s children matter, our mission is to invite people of all ages to know Jesus Christ, by providing an environment which nurtures faith, and opportunities for spiritual growth. We will challenge each other, our children, and our community to live, to understand, and to share God’s Word with the world."

 


We are a hands-on committee dedicated to providing opportunities to everyone in our congregation to learn about God and His Grace. We provide a variety of opportunities for learning through our Sunday school, youth activities, library and adult education programs to name just a few.

Our church building offers a unique setting for each of these activities. We invite you to stroll through the upper level where you will discover the Youth room, Nursery, Worship Centre, Beginner's Department and the Potter’s House. On the lower level you can visit the Odeon theatre, Temple and Sing Psalms room. As you wander through our halls you will experience the bible through exquisite wooden murals each depicting a much loved story. A journey through our halls will leave you feeling welcomed and inspired.

Visit the "Bookcorner", our library, in Iona Hall just to browse or to borrow a book, tape/CD or video/DVD from our vast collection of inspiring material.

We wish to express our sincere appreciation to all staff, teachers and volunteers, past and present, who have selflessly given their time and talents to share the stories of God’s great love with others.

We invite all who are interested to join us in this journey as a teacher, volunteer or learner so you can experience the joy God’s message brings to all who receive it. Let us all work together on this valuable and exciting mission. It takes a village to raise a child!

In Christ,

Your CE Committee

Tracy Blair & Diana Watson (co-chairs), Jan Blackburn, Lauren Blair, Martha Fergusson, Judy Jones, Jennie Kalbfleisch, Kathy MacDonald, Terry Sturtevant, Shelley Wiens, Jane Moses, Sandra Wall, Rob Johnston, Heather Ingram-Smith

Opportunities for Ministry

Workshop Rotation teacher: Teach the stories of the bible to children in Grades 1 through 6 for a 4 or 5 week period with crafts, cooking, music etc. These classes can be taught by a team of two. So bring a friend and teach together!

Sunday Youth programs: Mentors and leaders are needed for our Sunday morning programs for youth Grade 7 and up. Would you be available to teach a few lessons or to assist in leading discussions for 3 to 4 weeks? Maybe you have administrative gifts that you would be willing to offer occasionally or maybe you would be willing to share your faith journey with our young people.

Friday night and Special events for youth: Experience the joy of spending time with young, enthusiastic learners worshipping through sport, games, study and community.

Nursery Care and Young Children in Worship: Remember how good it feels to comfort a baby or to interact with innocent children? Why not offer to spend time with the youngest members of our family in the nursery on Sunday mornings? Maybe you’d like to support our toddler teachers by "just being there" to lend a helping hand.

Be a learner: Get involved! Participate in opportunities as you are able. Remember that one of the best learning opportunities is to be a teacher! Our wish is that everyone in our church family will grow in fellowship with God and with each other.

If you’d like to be a part of our team as a committee member or if you’d just like to help occasionally we’d love to hear from you. Please speak to any one of our committee members or call Tracy Blair at 621-2104 or Diana Watson at 895-0351.
