NOVEMBER 28, 2021: LIVE-STREAMED WORSHIP SERVICE
Welcome to Canadian Memorial United Church! This is our Sunday worship service, live streamed on Nov. 28, 2021, the first Sunday of Advent. Today we will celebrate the sacrament of Communion, and all are welcome at the table. You'll also be invited to light a candle with us during the service, so you may wish to get one ready now. The order of service is below. Everything else you'll need to follow along will be on the screen. We love newcomers! Feel free to join the live chat either below or at the top right corner of this window. We love to hear where people are tuning in from, and learning whose traditional lands they are on. ********* If you feel called to donate to our ministries, here's the link to the online donation page: https://www.canadianmemorial.org/dona... ********** TODAY'S WORSHIP LEADERSHIP: Lead Minister: Rev.
