On the first Friday* of each month, our All-Ages Ministry gathers for faith formation, worship, fellowship, and food. We gather at 5:00 for hands-on activities designed around the theme of the day, which is a feast day of the Church (e.g. Easter, All Saints' Day, Candlemas, etc.) or a story from the Bible. We've made miniature Easter Gardens, beeswax candles, Advent wreathes, and a whole variety of other things designed to help us enter into the story. There are activities like word searches, crosswords, colouring sheets, etc., for those who prefer a less hands-on activity. A short evening prayer service is held in the chapel around 5:45, often involving the telling of the Bible story around which the day is built, prayers, and a song. Then, we have dinner together in the hall, enjoying food and fellowship. The gathering is usually finished by 7:00. These gatherings are free and everyone is welcome regardless of age, church experience, or any other factor.
*When the first Friday is on a long weekend or other time likely to conflict with a number of people's schedules, the All-Ages Gathering may be moved to the following Friday. Keep an eye on our social media pages for details.
