Community

We operate from a harm reduction perspective to bring our community together in meaningful ways. Being in a faith community means supporting each other through the ups and downs of life. Our community programming offers vital social connection and engagement for people of all identities, ages, and interests. By coming together to share stories, listen, and laugh, we are nurturing our spirits and the spirits of others.

OWLS

50s - 60s

Are you older, wiser, livlier and social? Anyone in their 50’s or 60’s is welcome to join the OWLS group. We meet on the last Monday of every month to discuss interesting topics that are important to this age group.

Good News Cafe

Seniors

If you are a senior looking for connection, community and discussions as good as the coffee, this gathering is for you! We explore issues and topics that matter to you in this weekly gathering, sharing the good news that we see in our lives and in the world.

Roots Group

30s - 50s

Vancouver a no fun city? Not on our watch! Gather with others who want to create social events and celebrate throughout the year. It’s here that we plan our annual retreat, Thanksgiving dinner, and our Easter potluck and vigil.

Men’s Breakfast

All ages

Gathering round the table to talk, share our lives, and explore what we are wrestling with is a time-honoured tradition, and it’s made better by good food and coffee. Meet other men who are walking their faith path and listening to the events and concerns of their lives.

Stitching Circle

All ages

All levels of knitters, crocheters, quilters, and needlework artists are invited to join the Stitching Circle for two hours of camaraderie where projects are shared, ideas are exchanged, and advice cheerfully given.

The Stories We Tell

SpiritPride

SpiritPride is an LGBTQ2A+ affirming event that gathers communities who want to celebrate, share and find a place to explore spirituality and LGBTQ2A+ Identity. This annual conference, now in it’s 6th year, is an important place of healing for many who have been told they can’t reconcile their faith or spirituality and affirm their gender and sexual identity too.

Lecture

Overcoming Obstacles to Love

Join Thomas Oord for an evening lecture. Could a loving God abandon us? Or permit evil? Does God actually like us? And what might our love look like amid violence, worry, crisis, political dissension, climate change, and more? Thomas Jay Oord answers these questions as he explores what it means to imitate a loving God (Eph. 5:1). Free Public Lecture July 14th, 2022, at 7pm

Our Place
In the World

St. Andrew’s-Wesley respectfully acknowledges that we gather on the unceded lands of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. For thousands of years, First Nations people have walked on this land and their relationship with the land is at the centre of their lives and spirituality. As a church, and settlers on these shores, we have a life-long responsibility to unlearn our misunderstandings of history, territory, and identity through critical reflection, acknowledgement, and listening.
