Time

11:00 am - 12:00 pm

We begin a new youth (ages 13-18) program called “Visio,” where you will be invited to stay in for the first two thirds of the worship service, and will leave for the chapel after the sermon for a bevy of your choice, check-in and conversation, and a fun arts-based spiritual practice called Visio. Visio is a modern interpretation of the ancient Christian practice of Visio Divina, where Christians would ponder a piece of art and relate it to life, faith, and vocation. This will run from about 11am until after worship each week, and we will announce the time to leave the service just after the sermon. Please see Ben in the morning for your Starbucks order!

April 26

I Am Somebody is the inspiring story about six street-connected children who are chosen to represent their country at the Street Child World Cup in Qatar. Some of them are from the streets of Brazil and Bangladesh, some come from poor families in Pakistan and another is from a refugee camp in Palestine. But there is one thing that all these children have in common: their lives will change forever when they participate in the Street Child World Cup.

21st century life is awash with music as never before in human history, yet how easily the ear and soul have been drowned out by the saturation of sound in the modern era. Join us we cultivate a practice of intentional listening, spiritual interpretation, and articulation of physical sensation that is found in music.

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.
