Westminster Loving God & Neighbour

On Sunday, we will praise God and rest in his goodness! But there will be a few different formats: The in-person worship experience will be different from the online experience. Online will be a unique worship service, including special guest preacher the Rev. Dr. Richard Topping, the Principal of the Vancouver School of Theology. He will be speaking on Hebrews 11:1-20 and living by faith and not by sight. Just tune in to our YouTube channel at 10:01am and follow along. The in-person service (pre-registration required) will be offline. Our Music Director, Jenn Harris, is away this Sunday, so the service will be led by Pastor Ruttan; it will be a service of singing, readings and prayers. The outdoor service (casual, 40 minute) and Sunday School will continue at 3:30pm (no pre-registration required). The weather has been good as we worship and learn, echoing into the neighbourhood around us!   Join every Sunday at 10:01 a.m. live on YouTube

In a world that spins, we stand on a firm foundation and worship God! On Sunday, November 21 we worship at 10:01am (via YouTube and with our limited in-person gathering, pre-registration required). Pastor Ruttan will lead us in the 2nd last teaching on Hebrews with the idea that trials can be trainers and teachers. Julie Cunha will join in for the kids' time to discuss our December outreach project. We also  welcome back Jenn Harris to lead us in song! We also have our 3:30pm outdoor casual service with Sunday School. This is our second last outdoor service (they run from Sept 19 to Nov 28). Let's praise and serve our loving God.

On Sunday, December 5th we worship the living God on the 2nd Sunday in Advent. Music Director Jenn Harris and Pastor Ruttan are feeling better! :) Thank you for all the prayers! We sing, pray and light the candle of peace. Pastor Ruttan will lead us through Communion (if you're at home, have your bread and wine and/or juice ready), and the coordinator of our small groups and home church initiative, Henna Kim, will preach a message on an enigmatic text: Ezekiel 17:1-24. Laura Ruttan will join in for the kids' time, and we will have the Q and A Forum after the service. As is our custom on Communion Sundays, you are invited to share a financial offering for the Deacon's Fund, a fund which helps those struggling inside and outside the church. It is also the first drop-off day for our Toy Drive. We honour our coming King! Join every Sunday at 10:01 a.m. live on YouTube

We light the candle of joy on the third Sunday in Advent, December 12th. We continue singing the songs of Advent, praying, and learning from God's word as Pastor Ruttan provides a wrap-up message on the book of Hebrews called "Hit the light." The service is limited in-person (pre-registration) or via YouTube. Your gifts to for the Mitten Tree will also be received. These are hats/mittens/scarves for the David Busby Centre. If you're not there in person, you are invited to give via etransfer or through the app. We seek to be generous since God has been so generous with us! It is also the last day to drop off items for our Toy Drive (target ages: 0-2, 15-21). And don't forget the Drive-Thru Bethlehem hosted by our Sunday School and youth from 2-3pm!

Hope is Born Again! Things are really different right now, Christmas is different, our celebrations are different.  There is so much doom and gloom in the world and it is so easy to get discouraged.  BUT one thing never changes, and that is the hope that we have in Jesus. Let’s join together on Sunday, December 19 (limited in-person or online) for our 10:01 am service, as we are reminded of and can celebrate our Hope in song. Our choir cantata will be performed both virtually featuring choir members from last December and live with our smaller, socially distanced and masked in-person choir. Celebrate the joyful news - "HOPE is born again!" We will also light the candle of love and sing many favourite Christmas carols. It will truly be a morning of music and prayer. It is also our White Gift Sunday; this means we will receive donations for the Barrie Food Bank. If you’re not able to drop off anything in person, you can give to the Food Bank through the church smart phone app or by e-transfer. Why is it called “white” gift Sunday? This comes from a tradition of wrapping the donations in white paper, but that is not required. Sunday Morning worship at 10:01 a.m. is live on YouTube or limited in-person seating, reservations are required.

On Sunday, January 9 we worship the living Lord at 10:01am. "The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it" (John 1:5). That's our memory verse for this month and we seek to receive and experience that truth. The service will be available on YouTube only at 10:01am. Pastor Ruttan will begin a new teaching series on John's Gospel, we will sing and pray, and Laura Ruttan will share our next faith-at-home focus. Find us on our YouTube page here Sunday at 10:01 a.m.
