What is God up to? In Jesus Christ, through the Holy Spirit, the Father is making all things new. This is happening through ‘the energy of reconciliation which is the dynamo at the centre of the universe ‘(Eugene Peterson). This is taking place in many different ways and traditions, but our intention is to participate in what God is already doing by being faithfully present through the Spirit to our neighbours and beyond.

This requires learning to be attentive daily to what God is doing in the creation and in people’s lives. It also means being intentional about partnering with those who are already doing good in the neighbourhood. Many of our people have worked with, and/or currently volunteer with local organizations including: community gardening, newcomer language groups, serving food in shelters, refugee help, healthy transportation, and neighbourhood groups.

We also co-sponsor an annual community cycling festival called Love Your Bike, as well as an annual Soups-On-Thon, where we make large amounts of soup for the local Royal City Mission. We also participate with 40 Days of Discipleship a global ministry in on-line exploration of following Jesus.
