Hello! I am the bookkeeper for St Andrew’s-Wesley United Church. I started during Covid and have only met a few of you so far. I am pleased that the church is re-opening and hope to meet more of you soon. You might run into me at one of the farmers’ markets in Vancouver as I believe in supporting local business, particularly local farmers and restaurants.

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.
Join us for a mystical experience in the heart of Vancouver and walk the St Andrew’s Wesley United’s candlelit labyrinth while experiencing sacred music! Featuring Jerry Desvoignes and Duncan Hogg from The One Voice Harmonic Choir (OVHC), healing sound artist Kate Siddall and Michael Streit on oud.
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.
