Everything Lent
The road to Easter is a 40 day journey. Lent is a season of simplicity, repentance, fasting and prayer. We encourage you to remove something from your life in order to make more room for silence, stillness, and generosity.
Please take a look below for more information about this season.

Sunday Worship
Sunday worship begins at 10:30am and we recommend coming a little early to get settled
The service is about 90 minutes long, including a time of corporate singing, communal prayer, scripture reading, a sermon, and communion
There is both a nursery and a kids program that run alongside the service (please arrive early if you’re a new family hoping to have kids participating in either program)
You are welcome to come as you are (we really mean it)
Sunday Worship, 10:30-12pm

Mid-Week Events:
Tuesdays
After School Programming: Godly Play, Youth Bible Study, and Parent’s Circle
Our After School Programming is currently on pause but will run for one more seven week rotation after Easter.
Godly Play aims to teach the basics of the biblical story in an interactive and playful way. It is hosted by our Kid’s Coordinator Tash Crozier and some volunteer counsellors. Godly Play is designed for kids from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 4.
Kids in Grade 4 can decide to stay in Godly Play or try “moving up” to Youth Bible Study.
Youth Bible Study is a space to dig deeper into our faith, play games, and learn about being God’s people. It is hosted by Pastor Kevin and some volunteer counsellors. YBS is aimed for youth in Grades 5-8 (Grade 4 are welcome to join if able).
Parental Conversations are an open space for parents to talk about what it means to raise kids in the way of Christ. It runs at the same time as GP and YBS and is hosted by Pastor-Emeritus Jill Trites.
Email Tash about Godly Play and Kevin about Youth Bible Study if you are interested in registering your child.

Wednesdays
Morning Prayer: Learning to Pray Together
A simple liturgy, based off the book of Common Prayer, for those who would like to seek God early in the morning.
This prayer time is part of the ecumenical prayer network The Community of Common Prayer.
Wednesdays, 6:30-7am
Compline: Psalms and Silence to Complete the Day
We gather in darkness to chant psalms and sit in silence. This service can be as anonymous as you want, though it’s a very accessible way to enter into chanting (you sort of learn as you go, but we use very simple tones)
Click here for an example of how this Psalter sounds when chanted (but our services are… darker).
Enter in stillness. Sit where you want. Pray as you’re able.
Wednesdays, 9-10pm
Thursdays
Co-working at Eucharist
Every Thursday the Eucharist sanctuary will be open for hanging out, co-working, book reading, and coffee sharing. Bring whatever you’re working on and whoever you want to hang out with.

Connect on Facebook
If you consider Eucharist your church home, we invite you to join our Congregational Facebook group, where people share prayer requests, news from the city, and all sorts of other goodness. We recommend intentionally checking it every few days. Don’t rely on notifications as they are pretty inconsistent.
Give Online
We are so grateful for those who are a part of our church and give faithfully to God’s work among us.
