Noël aux chandelles est un des moments forts de la période du temps des fêtes à l’église de St. Andrew et St. Paul. Cet office est basé sur la tradition anglaise des lessons et carols et prend place dans la pénombre, créant une atmosphère féerique des plus inspirantes. Venez entendre et chanter vos refrains de Noël préférés!

We look forward to welcoming you to church school on Sunday at 11:00 am – children under age 12 will continue to meet via zoom while our older, vaccinated students are welcome to join us in person.

Strict protocols will be in place for our Senior Students including signing in at the entrance at 3415 Redpath, hand sanitizing and wearing masks at all times.

We look forward to another exciting year of Church School with the hopes and prayers that with the approval of a vaccine for our younger children, things will improve and we will be free to return to what we once considered “normal”.

Please note that beginning Sunday, October 17, anyone wishing to attend the service in person will be asked to show proof of vaccination.  We thank you for your understanding.

How God became human in the Christ child of Bethlehem is a mystery. It is difficult to understand and harder to explain. Theologians use complex technical language in attempts to describe what surpasses and frustrates our language and understanding. In this book, Adam Hamilton explores the why and to what end questions of the Incarnation: Why would God come to us in Jesus? What was the purpose of the Incarnation? How are we meant to respond to the Incarnation, to God’s coming to us in Jesus, today?

Each chapter of the book considers one or more of the names or titles used by the gospel writers as they introduce the story of Jesus: Lord, Messiah, Saviour, Emmanuel, Light of the Word and Word Made Flesh. As Adam Hamilton explores these titles for Jesus, he invites readers to reflect on the significance of Jesus’ incarnation to our lives and world today. Written during the COVID-19 pandemic, this book speaks to the experience of contemporary Christians as we reflect on the world-changing significance of the child we celebrate at Christmas.

Please join The Rev. Dr. Glenn Chestnutt, either in-person or via Zoom, for this 4-week book study beginning Tuesday, November 30 at 11:00 a.m. and continuing through the Advent Season. For a copy of the book and information Click here to contact the office
