Song: Now That the Daylight Fills the Sky

Now that the daylight fills the sky,
We lift our hearts to God on high
That She, in all we do or say,
Would keep us free from harm today,

“All praise to You, Creator Lord!
All praise to You, eternal Word!
All praise to You, O Spirit wise!”
We sing as daylight fills the skies.

Invocation: Sing to the Maker

All of creation, sing to the Maker,
sing a new song of jubilant praise.
God who has sung us, still is among us,
let us give thanks in the song we raise.

Building God’s Beloved Community

If you are new or newish to the Christian faith, interested in learning more about membership in The United Church of Canada or if you want to re-discover the faith you grew up with, think about joining our book study beginning this Fall. We will be reading “Building God’s Beloved Community: Discipleship in The United Church of Canada.” This book was written primarily with those new to the church in mind (the language is very accessible) yet is still relevant for wherever you are in your faith journey. The book features contributions from a wide theological and cultural spectrum within The United Church of Canada.
