our favourite fall sign - A Deeper Dive in 2019. (Karen Dickey) - Tuesday Night Jazz

James Bay United Church
Diving Into the New Year
our favourite fall sign

our favourite fall sign

"Live Life Fully" was the invitation on our sign for several weeks this fall and the theme of the beautiful brochure of programs offered by James Bay United for anyone to be part of. What a fall it was with neighbourhood celebrations movie and music nights, spiritual practices of deep listening, bible studies, perogie making, community carol singing, colourful banners, prayer flags, rich Sunday morning worship and so much more. 

As we enter the new year it is clear that the congregation at James Bay has turned an important corner. Together we are embracing the work of building the foundation of a future church. A foundation of a United Church that will be very different than the one our founders started in the last century. Perhaps a community closer to a Jesus community where we work to serve each other seven days a week. Where we know and love our neighbour. Where we radically welcome the other. Where each empowered member goes out as serves as minister to the neighbourhood. The spiritual corner of Michigan and Menzies is alive and well and growing - not just in numbers - but in the way it is reclaiming its relevance in a post-christian world.

“I have come that you might have life and have it more abundantly.” - Jesus

A Deeper Dive in 2019

A Deeper Dive in 2019

Maybe it was a new year’s resolution … again! Or a spark of desire that … where did it go? This hope or longing to step more fully into life, to be more intentional about living life with grace, insight and wisdom, and to share in this holy adventure with others.

The opportunity awaits you to take a deeper dive this year.
