Welcome to St. Barnabas!
We are an intergenerational, family-oriented community of
followers of Jesus. Our
members come from many different cultural and faith
backgrounds. We have
third generation Canadian Anglicans, those who are new to
Canada, those who are new to the Christian faith, and those
whose faith journey has taken them through other churches to
the Anglican church.
What we hold in common and what binds us together is our
desire to worship God, to celebrate the new life we have in
Jesus Christ, and to continually seek the transformation
that comes through the Holy Spirit.
Our main expression
of this common bond is in our Sunday worship services, which
are liturgical in format. This
gives an ordered expression for our worship, praise and
prayers.
Our liturgy is part of what we treasure as Anglicans and
provides the context for seeking God’s transformative grace
in our lives as He visits us through the ministry of the
Word and Sacrament and each other.
As you may notice by our building and our liturgy, we are
grounded in history and appreciative of the lives and
stories of our forbearers and the richness of the tradition
we inherit as followers of Jesus.
We are also looking
ahead. We are
excited about the future and seek to discern and participate
in the new things God is doing – His ongoing work in our
lives, our work, our families, communities and the Church.
We would love to hear from you.
We would love to
have you join us.
