On Sunday September 1st,  we will join together at 10:01 to worship our incredible God! Pastor Ruttan returns from his vacation to lead worship and offer a sermon called "Asking God for a Sign." Have you ever been uncertain about something important and asked God for a sign? Maybe you've prayed something like this: "God, I don't know what to do or which way to go? Please give me a sign that gives me some clarity!" If you have, or if you've ever thought about it, or if you've ever wondered what the Bible says about asking for a sign, then this message will be helpful for the often uncertain journey of life. There will be nursery care and Sunday School, from pre-school to high school.  Hope you can join us!

On Sunday, September 8th we’re excited for our Welcome Service and BBQ! It’s the official kick-off to our 2019-2020 church year! The service starts at 10:01am.  We really hope you join in. Here’s what to expect: In the service we’ll welcome back the Adult Choir. The full Sunday School program will resume (ages pres-school to grade 12) We’ll sing, pray, and Pastor Ruttan will lead our service and deliver the message as part of a new series "Contentment: Being at peace in a culture of more more more!" It will go over four Sundays and will focus on various aspects of being content in a consumeristic culture which, through envy/greed/constant comparison, can threaten to rob of us of the peace we have in Christ. This Sunday's message is called "Spiritual Billionaire" and he'll focus on how in today's media world we can easily fall into the trap of wanting what other people have... but this neglects the fact that in Christ we are spiritual billionaires -- which is to say that by focusing on what we do have (forgiveness, eternity, fellowship with God, purpose, peace etc) we're less likely to be downcast by what we don't. & we’ll have a free BBQ after the service with an inflatable obstacle course for the kids! Start your autumn right at Westminster. You’ll be glad you did. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldJcTgOL9Wk

On Sunday, September 15th we worship and praise God together! He is indeed an amazing, trustworthy God. We will sing (having welcomed back the Adult Choir, and will welcome back the Jr Choir), pray together, learn from God's word (both upstairs and down), and encourage one another. There will be full Sunday School (preschool to high school), and we will have nursery care. During the message, Pastor Ruttan will continue with Part 2 in our new series: 'Contentment: Being at peace in a world of more more more.' This Sunday he will explore Robber #2 who loves to steal your contentment by making you continually compare yourself to others (in person or online) and by thinking too much of the judgments or opinions of others. Our main text will be 1 Corinthians 4:1-5 as we explore the biblical antidote. Let's honour God powerfully together!

Sunday September 22nd, we will gather together to worship & sing praises to our incredible God. This Sunday is Part 3 in our series, 'Contentment - Being at peace in a world of more more more.' Pastor Ruttan will expose Robber #3 who tries to steal our contentment and peace by distracting us from our true purpose in life. The antidote is biblical, practical, and even supported by modern research! Let's keep journeying together. There will be nursery care and the full Sunday School will be in operation.  Hope to see you there!

Sunday September 29th, we will gather together to worship our incredible God. This week Pastor Ruttan will lead us in Part 4 of the 'Contentment' series with an exploration of Matthew 6:25-34. It's one of Jesus' most beloved teachings ("Do not worry about your life...Do not worry about tomorrow...") Something people often miss in this passage is two principles which, when cultivated and understood, increase your contentment and peace in a world of more more more. Make no mistake: Robber #4 tries to steal your peace by making you WORRY. (Can you relate?) Let's explore the antidote together!" There will be nursery care and the full Sunday School will be in operation.  Hope you can join us!
