December 24th , 2024 at 4:30 PM - Christmas Eve Family Service - Glebe St James United Church

Christmas Eve is a special time for everyone but if you have children and would appreciate an afternoon service, this is for you! Please join us in person at 650 Lyon St at 4:30 or join us on-line on our YouTube channel! Ruth Burnett-Cole will do the welcome, Andy Hamilton the Land Acknowledgment, and Rev. Sue Toller will read the gospel (Luke 2:1-7) and the children's activity. Every service at Glebe St. James begins with a welcoming message and land acknowledgement that says 'Glebe-St. James is an Affirming Community of Faith in the United Church of Canada. Everyone and their gender, race, ethnicity, abilities, and sexual orientation is welcome and celebrated in our worship. We acknowledge that we are guests on this land where we gather in worship this morning. We are on the traditional unceded, unsurrendered territory of the Algonquin Anishinaabeg Peoples.' Consider 'subscribing' to the GSJ YouTube channel and use the 'notification' (the 'bell' symbol on the GSJ YouTube channel) to be notified when we go live. If, for any reason, the webcast is interrupted you should still be able to connect by looking for the red 'live' thumb-nail image on your YouTube home screen if we were able to reestablish our livestream. If that doesn't work, we will do our best to post the recording at a later date and will advise you of that on our Facebook page.
