Gordon Miller is passionate about growing relationships in the neighbourhood.
"Church isn't just about what happens on Sunday morning, it's much more. It's about walking faithfully alongside our neighbours ... caring for the people, the creatures and the resources of the planet we share."
For Gordon, strangers are simply friends he hasn't met yet.
"So much great neighbourhood spirit is happening here in James Bay. For years, the community church in that funky little building on the corner, has been a vital voice in the neighbourhood. Certainly not the only voice. But an important voice supportive of social action initiatives, welcoming of Canadian newcomers, compassionate and understanding of the marginalized in our midst and grounded in spiritual practices."
Gordon is ’out and about’ in James Bay getting to know the neighbours, discovering how God is already at work in the community and how James Bay United Church can be serving the neighbourhood in today and well into the future.
