Minister with Children, Families and Pastoral Care

Rev. Jen Cunnings

Rev. Jen Cunnings joined the ministerial team at St. Andrew’s-Wesley in 2008. With a passion for creating welcoming spaces of community where all ages learn from and with one another, Jen is a believer that faith is formed through relationship. She has been in ministry with the United Church of Canada since 1992 and has served in congregations around the lower mainland as well as facilitating ministry for regional settings for the church. She is one of the founding members of Camp Spirit, a believer in Godly Play© and is devoted to children and youth being seen as part of the present in the church, not only the future (along with seniors who are not only a part of the past)! She loves engaging and reaching out to our local community through our Parent and Tot program, Parenting Events and Camp Spirit, to name a few. She is committed to encouraging, supporting and celebrating with children, youth and their families as they make a home for their faith, live it and engage it in the world. Jen loves gardening, bike riding, being at the ocean side, riding roller coasters and spending time with those she loves!

Community & Worship

Jan 11

Eat Pray Love is a gathering for all ages. A time of singing and story and prayer, a time to to be creative and a time to share a meal and conversation together. We will be gathering 5 times this year to celebrate the seasons of Advent, Epiphany, Lent, Easter and Pentecost. This gathering will happen at St. Andrew’s Wesley and at Christ Church Cathedral as we collaborate together.

Community & Spirituality

Wednesdays in January

The Heart of Christianity: this ancient spiritual path is liberating and life-giving, and can also be bewildering. What are we “supposed” to believe, and does belief even matter? How can we grow in faith? What does it mean to be a follower of Jesus, and who was the historical Jesus, anyway? These and other essential questions will be addressed and discussed in our five-week Epiphany series that we all might be “rooted and grounded in love.”

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.
