Updates

Young adults ages 18-25, join us for the final module of DISCIPLE, whether or not you were with us for the other modules. Sign up online.

Please let us know what you think about gathering in-person before the survey closes this week. Many of you have used this opportunity to send messages of encouragement and remind us that you are praying with and for us. Thank you.

We are working behind the scenes to upgrade our systems. You may be asked to confirm the information that we have for you at some point this summer. If you suddenly stop hearing from SPL altogether, then just email us to let us know and we’ll make sure you’re connected in.

Summer communications will have a different cadence over the summer as staff take vacation time. We will send out fewer weekly video messages, but you can still expect to receive sermons, email updates, and invitations to prayer each week.

Restrictions in Ontario are changing and church buildings can open for in-person gatherings again. The SPL Session (elders) have reviewed the guidelines that are coming out and have determined that we will continue to connect online for the remainder of the summer.

Session will re-evaluate this at the end of July, and would value your input into this. Please take a few moments to complete this survey about in-person gatherings on Sundays.

And if you’re thinking of meeting in person with your small group or home church, please check out these guidelines as you make your decision.

Young adults ages 18-25, next week (June 15) we start a second module of DISCIPLE, this one focusing on life in the kingdom. You can join either the Tuesday/Friday morning or the Friday evening group. You can join whether or not you were with us for the first module. Sign up online.

The past ten days have been particularly heavy for us globally as, in the midst of coronavirus, we’ve witnessed the slow killing of an African-American man begging for breath, and seen grief and anger unleash more violence. It’s a situation so fraught with emotion and despair that it’s hard to find words to speak about it. But it matters that we as a church do speak about it, and it matters how we speak about it.

Listen in as Lynnita talks about the costly love that is needed now more than ever.

We’re starting our summer series based on the book of Psalms. Download the reading plan and track along.

Apprentice starts this Wednesday, June 3. If you are a member of the cohort and haven’t been receiving emails and Sharon, check your junk mail first; if nothing is there, contact Lynnita so that you can start receiving cohort messages. Applications for the summer cohort are closed, but we are starting a waiting list for a potential fall cohort. Let us know if you’re interested.

Young adults (18-25 years old), the next module of DISCIPLE starts mid-June. If you are not already part of DISCIPLE and would like to join us for the second 4-week module (Life in the Kingdom), then apply online now.
