A warm welcome to all! You may have no formal religious upbringing. You may be of a different faith tradition or denomination. All are welcome in this place.
The community of St. David’s invites you to join us on a spiritual journey to:
explore the sacred in our lives and in the world around us
ask questions openly, to hear and to be heard in a respectful, safe environment
connect with others who
share
a strong sense of social responsibility
appreciate
the interrelatedness of a healthy mind, body, spirit and lifestyle
are committed
to inclusiveness and are open to change
seek
joy and strive for a meaning-filled existence
aspire
to a deeper spiritual, richer inner life
engage
in meaningful activities that embody these values
create
new opportunities for personal growth and relationship with each other
Together, we look to the life and teachings of Jesus as a guide on this journey.
Some of the practical ways that we live out our faith include:
preparing and serving dinner
Monthly Congregation/Community Dinners on the First Tuesday of most months; making sandwiches for the North Shore Lookout Shelter
sharing a meal together
on special occasions or a congregational meeting
supporting refuge families
from different areas of the world.
educating ourselves and our children
about Fair Trade practices and ethical consumerism
attending ESL classes, taking part in learning workshops, joining in our bi weekly hikes and special outings.
participating in the Sunday worship service
through attendance, greeting, ushering, singing with the choir or in a pew, serving coffee after the service, connecting with friends, and making new friends, young and old, through conversation and shared activities
nurturing our children and youth
in their own faith journeys through their participation in Sunday School.
engaging in study groups, theological discussions, adult education series, weekend retreats, and interfaith and intercultural community events
being present for each other
through good times and bad
offering up our time and skills
to the ongoing work that sustains the church.
