Bible Text: Matthew 21:28-32 | Preacher: Rev. Amanda Currie |  Welcome to Presbyterians Sharing Sunday. 

Today we remember and celebrate the fact that our congregation is not alone. We are part of a body. We belong to The Presbyterian Church in Canada, a denomination of Presbyterians across the country that is connected by a common faith, governance, mission, history and a shared ministry and mission. 

2020 has been a difficult year for us. The impact of the global pandemic on congregations and other ministries has been significant. Denominational meetings and conferences have been cancelled, postponed or moved online. Camps and other children’s ministries were cancelled or significantly adjusted. Pastoral needs have increased while financial resources have been stretched, and leaders across the country have had to adapt to doing ministry in strange and new ways to keep everyone safe. 

Still, the ministry that we do together through Presbyterians Sharing has continued and is continuing, adapting to changing needs and priorities for the churches. Together we are carrying out Christ’s ministry in our communities and around the world by serving, leading, and connecting.
