Exploring our Faith
27/08/2019 Duration: 25minResponses to questions were offered by our pastor Mitchell Anderson. At 4:09 Our first question is: Why do we say that Christ died on the Cross for the expiation of sins? At 11:20, our second question is: How does Christ as “the one perfect sacrifice” relate to the other great religions who do not recognise him as their salvation? At 18:10 our third question is: Where did Jesus go after he rose from the dead? There were a few sightings after his crucifixion and then no further sightings. At 20:57 our fourth question is: Why do we allow a minister who does not believe in God or Jesus to remain an active approved minister? Does it matter what we say we believe in our United Church of Canada doctrine?

A Community of Care
20/08/2019 Duration: 14minA key part of our vision of being a small-but-thriving community of faith is building up the whole people of God in our work of caring for one another, of loving and serving others. This speaks to the very core of who we are in Jesus Christ, as a people who help one another. As we grow in our vision of being a community of care, we recognise that we all need care, we all give care, and care is the work of the whole people of God. The teaching was delivered by our pastor, Mitchell Anderson. The teaching text was James 5:13-18 and Luke 10:1-10.
