What is our Blue Christmas service?
This service is a quiet, reflective, and relatively sombre Christmas service, held after the longest night of the year (December 21, the beginning of Winter). It is a service for people who may be experiencing grief, loss, pain, who are unable to fully participate in festive Christmas worship services and celebrations. The service is open to all, and will use both English and Chinese. Our Blue Christmas service will not be livestreamed.

WELCOME TO ST. JOHN’S ANGLICAN CHURCH WILLOWDALE!

St. John’s seeks to enable people in all their diversity to encounter the transforming presence of God in Jesus Christ. As a community of worshippers, staff, and volunteers, we work with care and imagination to be a centre for welcome, worship and learning. This inspires successive generations to engage with the richness of the Christian faith and its heritage. We aim to do this with confidence, compassion and creativity, promoting dignity and justice for everyone. We work with the Bishop of Toronto and the wider church, as a spiritual focus for Willowdale, the nation, and the world.

OUR VALUES

  • Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control;

  • To uphold integrity, honesty and openness in what we do;

  • To aim for the highest possible standards in everything we do, acknowledging that we cannot do everything;

  • To make our operations as just and as sustainable as we can;

  • To foster and encourage diversity, being inclusive and challenging to ourselves as well as others.


歡迎

聖約翰堂是多倫多第一間華人聖公會,由香港移民家庭成立於1973年。侊似以色列人蒙主引領經歷曠野,四十年來在四間不同教堂崇拜之後,在2013年搬到現址,適中的地點,莊嚴優美的聖堂,綠化的前後園子,是一個可以讓我們更多服務人群和傳揚福音的好地方。

藉上帝從不間斷的帶領和恩典,我們在香港移民的基礎上,近年發展至融合多元種族,文化和語言,擴濶了天國事工的機會,也為移民的下一代更能融入加拿大社會,提供了一個在基督裏的群體。

感謝神恩,我們樂見下一代積極留在自己教會中繼續事奉,甚至加入爲信徒領袖。我們更投入牧養資源,支持已步入社會的在職青年和他們組成的新家庭,去不斷成長。

我們深信耶穌基督的福音超越文化,也可以提升文化。我們珍重自身文化的可貴,也樂於欣賞不同文化的多姿多采。

我們中間的許多操粵語移民,在過去半個世紀以來一直到今天,都非常歡迎和願意幫助香港來的移民,在此安居,紮根,成長。

在21世紀的加拿大,尤其是在多倫多,具前瞻性的移民願景,有很大的空間。本堂盼望與大家一起邁進,為我們的下一代,為更新的教會,為上帝的國度,共同努力!

我們誠懇邀請您來實體參加崇拜,體驗我們在主裡的群體生活。互相認識,

活出有信、望、愛的大家庭。

 

願主賜您平安

李時雄法政牧師祝禱


十二月份金句

你們知道我們主耶穌基督的恩典 : 他本來富足 , 卻為你們成了貧窮 , 叫你們因他的貧窮可以成為富足。

(哥林多後書 8:9)

Verse for December

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich.
