Some say, "the mountains are my church" or "at the water is where I find God." We get it. It's the same for us. We just want to be together on the path to a fairer world where we each find wholeness.
We follow the Way of Jesus, a way of contemplation and action that shares in the good news promise of new life.
Gathering on the land
The child-friendly contemplative walk is all about taking a breath or two to marvel in Creation. We walk, we talk, we walk in silence, we sing -- all outside, all in God's presence.
Mondays at 4:15pm we meet at one of several locations.
Our next hike is planned for October 16, 2022.
The second Sunday of each month, we connect with the sacred in the forest, on the mountain, at the water--after all, God is in all places already.
We walk, we talk, we also walk without talking. And we sit. In silence. And we are grounded.
Would you come with us?
Next: Sunday, September 25
Does it get any better than gathering around a campfire, telling stories and singing songs? There's a reason that the campfire has been the circle of human socialization since our species came into being. Come, join us on the 4th Sunday of the month for a mostly-casual time of eating, giving thanks, and being together.
We are a church plant initiative of the Pacific Mountain Region of The United Church of Canada.
While traditional expressions of church continue to reflect God's love, we seek to do things a little differently. We focus on spiritual practices. We gather outside. We search for ways to be the church in the community.
We strive for harmony within a complicated history the long predates settlers arriving on Turtle Island (North America) and with a geography that exudes beauty even while undergoing major change.
The spiritual practices guide that goes with you
Each of us loses "balance" from time to time. Spiritual practices, though, help us to regain that equilibrium.
Join host Greg Powell on a walking spiritual practice. Each episode features a new practice.
Whether you're ultra-busy or ultra-spiritual already, come along for the journey.
