Pastor Rod is leading a seminar on our new sermon series, “Sharing the Gospel.” Sunday nights from November 5th to the 19th, from 6pm-7pm. We hope to see you there!
Who hasn’t felt the inner tug of the heart to share the good news of Jesus with a friend, family member, co-worker or neighbor? I’m sure we all have. We know the love of Jesus for ourselves and we know he loves our friends too, but we find it hard to talk about Jesus with them. Why is that? If you’d like to talk about this come out to our three part seminar on “developing significant relationships with people far from Jesus” on Nov. 5th, 12th and 19th, from 6-7pm at Sardis Fellowship. We will talk about things like, “What counts as sharing the gospel?” What are the “guts” of the gospel? & “How to have a spiritual conversation with a friend who doesn’t yet know Jesus?” This is all a part of our vision at Sardis Fellowship to be a “loving, just, visible, & transformative presence in our local community.” Centred in Christ, visible in community, transforming our world! To the Glory of God!
Over the next 4 weeks (November 19 to December 15) let's fill up our "Giving Tree" with food supplies for people in need in our local community.

Jorge and Mely Ferreira are hosting a Zoom bible study! A new series studying “the person of the Holy Spirit.”
Why Study the Person of the Holy Spirit?
Studying who the Holy Spirit is and how He works is so crucial because He indwells all believers. HE IS IN US. He has been working in and through us since we’ve accepted Jesus Christ as our Saviour. He is the guarantee of our salvation (Ephesians 1:14). Not only that, He teaches us who God is and what God wants from us. There are many more important reasons why we need to study the third person of the Trinity.
Please join us on this exciting journey in the presence of the Author of Scripture (2Peter 1:21; 2 Timothy 3:16).
Thursdays nights, June 3 – July 8, 2021
6:30-6:55 pm: Devotion ; Prayers; Mission Field and Hymn sing lead by Ivan and Lucy. Everyone welcome to join but not required.
7 - 8:15 pm: Teaching & Questions and Answers
Now up and running! You are invited to participate in a “Stations of the Cross” Prayer Walk. Come to the Church any time that is convenient for you, then walk, and pray through the 14 different stations, to coincide with our Easter week celebrations.
The stations start at the front of our property, and continue East around the Church building. Each stop on the walk is an opportunity to pause, read and reflect on the Biblical account of the Easter narrative.
The stations will remain up until Easter Monday.
