‘A Spacious Place’ is inspired by the picture of Psalm 18:19: He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me.

In response to the love of God we also create space to be formed in His Presence.

On this Sunday we celebrate the many cultures, languages, and peoples of our church family! We will also share updates on some of the work we support around the world.

After our worship we will share some treats together.

We are welcoming our friend Dr. Sam Bloore to share with us around the theme "Understanding Emerging Adulthood.” This is an evening for our 18 to 30s but also for any interested in what it means to grow well as disciples, or to support those growing, in these formative years. Will be a special evening to share and learn together.

As Christians, what would a greater imagination for how we are to respond to the current climate crisis look like? Together, we face an urgent question: how might we learn to “walk beautifully upon the earth?” (John Moriarty). To this question, the Christian tradition has wise, rich, and wonderful things to say. But too few of us are familiar with its treasures. We are, in Christopher Thompson’s phrase, “indoor Christians.” We don’t see, feel, experience, or care for the natural world as Christian faith would have us. We need to take our faith outside.

We’ll gather for nibbles, before Andrew Shamy leads us in conversation around the Christian vision of Creation. Together we’ll ask, how might we recover a sense of wonder in our disenchanted age, how might we learn to live wisely and well upon the earth?
