Eastertide
Sure enough, shadows are everywhere today violence, despair, war … But this fifty-day season of Eastertide presents us an opportunity to redouble our commitment to create a graceful, peaceful, beautiful world in which all may live and thrive, together we create a DAWNING of a new day.
EASTERTIDE | Taizé
We meet at the Garry Oak Room | 10:00AM
Join us in person at 10AM for a Taizé style worship service with Fairfield United Church. Taizé worship services involve sung and chanted prayers, meditation, a period of silence, liturgical readings, prayer, and icons. There is no preaching. It’s a contemplative experience a time to pause, reflect, and be with God. Everyone is welcome.
Leader: Diego Barrientos
EASTERTIDE | Open Sky Church
1341 Thurlow Rd, Victoria. | 12:30PM
We gather as a beloved community, families, and individuals at 12:30 p.m. by a campfire; we will share food and community. We then transition into worshipful time surrounded by nature in the city. Together, we pray, sing with our musicians, consider the message, be rooted in the Christian tradition and share our connections with an ancient story. Some gatherings will include guided meditation and setting intentions for changing our world. We know it starts with one person's actions! Dogs are welcome and should remain on a leash. We all leave with a sense of grace and purpose.
You will find parking in a lot behind the Sir James Douglas School and the Garry Oak room; we will be under the Garry Oak trees. We will have access to washrooms, and the community center room is our 'rainy day' plan.
Please bring chairs or blankets, some food, and or something to cook over the fire. Ingredients for S'mores will be provided!
Leader: Rev. Greg Powell, Rev. Beth Walker
