Festival of Nine Lessons & Carols Service

Enjoy a simple service of words and music, marking the completion of our Christmas season. Outside, the carols may have stilled and the bustle now focused on Boxing Week sales, but inside the church, we are still celebrating the Incarnation.

St. Mary's Guest Preacher April 26th

Our guest preacher for April 26th will be The Reverend Lorie Martin, Vicar at St. Thomas, Chilliwack, and Director of The Centre for Spiritual Renewal Inter-Parish Ministry. She is coming to share how a dream for spiritual growth and community connection has been flourishing in our Diocese. The Centre began 8 years ago when Lorie and the Reverend David Taylor co-created places and seasonal programs to offer spiritual practice and study groups, retreats, workshops, and a variety of contemplative gatherings to encourage parishioners, occasional attenders, and neighbors to explore and grow their spiritual life. She is joining us to invite us to explore how we here at St. Mary’s can enhance our own spiritual life and explore the Presence of God in our lives, our parish and our neighborhood.
