In this week's sermon, Pastor Dave witnesses to the life of Christ after his resurrection.

Just like the gospel writer Luke, we are invited to bring our neighbours to know the good news of the risen Jesus.

Shawn has a Masters of Divinity and is a registered Marriage and Family therapist at ⁠Sycamore

This week, Pastor Jonathan continues our sermon series on Forgiveness. What does it mean to be a light for the world? One practical way for the church is that it reflects God's goodness by being a community that seek forgiveness and reconciliation together.
