Last Sunday’s sermon: “Two Big Threats to Love, and How to Overcome Them”

You can download the handout for this sermon here: handout pdf
Or view it online here: preview

• Seven parts of Ephesians open with the expression: ‘Walk...’ We look at the fifth, ‘Walk in love’ which is immediately followed by the two biggest threats to a loving community. Thankfully there is a way they can be overcome.

Tuesday Oct 3 Homegroups

Wednesday Oct 4 Homegroups

Homegroups are smaller meetings during the week where we can put into practice what we have learned on Sundays, get to know one another better, and use our gifts to bless each other.

What happens: We start with some refreshments—tea, coffee, and a snack while we catch up on what everyone has been doing. Then worship—usually somebody leads with a guitar. Then we have a discussion based around God’s word, the Bible. We usually spend some time praying, often for the needs of the people who are there. Everyone is welcome!

We have homegroups meeting in different areas of the city:

• Tuesday 7:30pm:
  • Downtown East (Carlton & Parliament) at Andrew & Anne Fountain’s home
  • Downtown Central (Bay & College) at Braden & Claire Quick’s home
• Wednesday 7:30pm:
  • North (St. Clair/Bathurst) at Dan and Heather Smith’s home
  • Eastside (Danforth/Broadview) at 7:00pm at Bumo & Hle’s home
