I would also like for support praying for a very close friend who's struggling with an addiction and for obstacles such as inability to find a permanent job and infidelity in his relationship to be overcome through God. Thank you.

All this week we invite you to join us as we prepare our hearts to celebrate the Easter season coming, through a daily gathering (online or in-person, live or asynchronously) to worship, reflect, pray, and practice together as we walk through some of the experiences of Holy Week.

Monday

Jesus Flips The Tables

Click Here to join us on our YouTube channel live at 7:30-8:00am - or anytime later throughout the day. 

Today we will walk through a reflection of what is holding ‘holy space’ in our lives, and ask ourselves whether anything has taken up residence where only God is meant to be.

Tuesday

The Olivet Discourse

Click Here to join us on our YouTube channel live at 7:30-8:00am - or anytime later throughout the day.

Today after spending some time reflecting on some of Jesus' most important words, we will participate in a breath prayer in order to help remind us that we receive Jesus through the Holy Spirit - who is as close as the breath in our lungs.

Wednesday

Jesus Anointed At Bethany

Click Here to join us on our YouTube channel live at 7:30-8:00am - or anytime later throughout the day.

Today we will reflect on the significance of Mary's anointing of Jesus at Bethany – we will be led through our own spiritual practice of extravagant love.

Thursday

Maundy Thursday

Click Here to join us on our YouTube channel live at 7:30-8:00am - or anytime later throughout the day.

Today is the day on which Jesus had the last supper with his disciples. After reading through a brief reflection, we will participate in communion with one another.

Friday

Good Friday Worship Service

Today we hope you will join us at 10:30am at any of our three locations for a time of Worship and Communion and space to reflect together on the impact of Jesus' act of love demonstrated on the cross. If you cannot attend in person, Click Here for the online experience.

And don't forget to mark your calendars for the Holy Saturday hike happening tomorrow morning at Rockway Conservation Area, 8:30am. 

Saturday

Holy Saturday Hike

Our practice this day will be an active one – a one-hour contemplative hike embracing elements of both lament and waiting – as we allow our hearts to soften into the full experience of the bittersweetness of “already and not yet.” Family-friendly, everyone is welcome!

Join us at Rockway Conservation Area at 8:30am. 1742 St. Paul Street West, St. Catharines.

Contemplations
First Things First

From the moment our bodies awaken, our eyes begin to open, and we enter into the ordinary wonder of a brand new day... 

Contemplations
Encore | Imaginative Prayer

Do you ever, like the writer of the book of Ecclesiastes, find life boring? 

Activities
Joy & Laughter

Today, we want to practice something many people find hard to experience, and that’s JOY. Believe it or not, joy is something that can be practiced...
