Get ready for the coziest night of the year—our Young Adults Christmas Party is happening December 16th, and you’re officially invited! We’re throwing a full-on pyjama party, so pull out your comfiest sweats, flannel pants, or that absurdly festive onesie you definitely bought on sale. We’ll be settling in with hot drinks, Christmas treats, and a showing of The Polar Express to kick off the season the right way.
We’re also doing a Secret Santa gift exchange, and we need everyone to register in advance so we can pair names and make sure no one gets left out. The deadline to register is December 9th! Gifts should be in the $15–$20 range, so keep it fun and thoughtful! Use the Google Form HERE to sign up, then grab a small gift and bring your holiday cheer. It’s going to be fun, nostalgic, and the perfect break from exams and work—don’t miss it! 🎄✨

It’s time to party—to Christmas party! Join us December 19th at the Southeast site from 7-10PM for yummy snacks and a festive night with friends as we remember Jesus’ birth! Bring a friend and let’s celebrate Christmas together!
Join us either in person or online on Christmas Eve for our celebration of Jesus’ birth. These one-hour services for the whole family will include Christmas carols, videos, and Scripture readings. While the services will be enjoyable for all ages, we plan to provide childcare for the youngest of our guests (ages 0-3). Towards the end of the service, we will join together in song and light candles, so for those joining us online please have some candles ready for lighting at the end of the service.
We will gather at 2:00pm and 4:00pm at Connors Hill, Southeast, and Sherwood Park. Our online service will be at 4:00pm, and will be available on demand the rest of Christmas Eve.
We will also receive a special offering on Christmas Eve to support both The Mustard Seed and Hope Mission. Click HERE for more information.
Join us either in person or online on Sunday, December 28th. We will gather for ONE service at 10am at Connors Hill, Southeast, Sherwood Park, and online.
Our regular 9am and 11am service schedule will resume on January 4th.
On December 28, we’ve booked the ice at Glen Allan Rec Centre—just down the street from the church—and would love for you and your family to join us for a fun Christmas-break skate! Come enjoy some relaxed time together on December 28 from 4:15–5:45 p.m. NO RSVP required, just bring your skates, invite a friend, and enjoy a little mid-holiday fun with our church family.
Each January, we dedicate a week to intentionally clearing our schedules—both as a church and in our households—to focus on prayer. Through nightly gatherings, we come together to share our hearts with Jesus and listen for what He wants to say to us.
We invite you to join in three meaningful ways:
Experiment with new rhythms: Explore spiritual practices to make new room for God’s presence and power as you step into the new year.
Clear your calendar for Prayer Week: Plan to fully engage in nightly gatherings and prayer events (January 12-16) with our church community.
Share what you’re hearing: Listen for what Jesus is speaking to you and to our church, and share these insights with our leadership throughout the month.
