Sunday, September 25, 2022 - “State of the Church Report by the Interim Minister - Stewardship of the Future”

Rev. Peter

A great deal of things have happened over the summer and in the last couple of weeks that have positioned St Andrew’s for the next chapter in its history. Come and hear what’s up and how the next few months will look. We are working at being good stewards of the future of our congregation. This is the second sermon on the Parable of the Talents.

Inquiring Minds Want to Know!

Inquiring Minds Want to Know!

Some observant people have been wondering why the banner at the front of the sanctuary says "125" when our congregation is only 117 years old?  That banner was made for the year 2000 to mark the 125th anniversary of the Presbyterian Church in Canada. The observant are also wondering why it looks kind'a like the window? The banner was part of the inspiration for the window! So there you have it folks! And rest assured the "125" will apply to us in eight years.

As we realize inflation all around us, we need also to recognize that there is an increase in the number of people living without any food at all. How much has our caring grown?
