Sunday Service: Belonging
October 12 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
The Jan 26 service will be put on by the IPA Team (“Indigenous, Black, People of Colour, PLUS Allies).
The theme is Belonging. We will explore how belonging is possible when one is straddling two cultures?
We have invited three guest speakers who are the offspring of immigrants. As children, they were the bridge between their parents, who brought over their language, culture, hopes and dreams, and the new reality of life in Canada.
What did these children experience growing up through the Canadian education system and being immersed in North American culture? How did this experience affect them as they became adults?
Everyone is invited to sing our chosen hymns which will be in other languages to remind us that spirituality, love, and joy belong to all people and cultures around the world.
Weekly services
We gather every Sunday morning at 11am in our Sanctuary at 49th and Oak and online at vanu.ca/live. Worship creates connections within, among, and beyond us, calling us to our better selves, calling us to live with wisdom and compassion.
After service we gather in Hewett Centre for Coffee and Social Hour. Families with children and newcomers are always welcome!
