Continues tomorrow!

In his previous parish, Philip was known for his live-streamed Morning Prayer. He returns to this practice for Lent, but with a different pattern. This offering is for anyone in the Diocese of New Westminster or anyone who would find it helpful. Could you share this with others?

So, this Lent, join Philip for around 30 minutes of prayer and reflection each Monday in Lent at 8 AM (live) and daily through Holy Week on Facebook and Youtube. Each session will use the Sunday Collect and Readings to offer a fresh perspective for the week ahead. Missed it live? Watch it anytime afterward. All are welcome!

Many of us were inspired by Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde's bravery in challenging President Trump to show mercy during a sermon at his Inauguration Prayer Service.

Wherever you are, please join us for a five-week Lenten journey inspired by Bishop Budde's book, How We Learn to Be Brave. Each week, we’ll explore what it means to step forward in faith, even when faced with fear and uncertainty.

March 13: The Call to Courage
March 20: Facing Fear and Uncertainty
March 27: The Power of Community
April 3: Resilience in Suffering
April 10: A Courageous Yes

We meet on Thursdays at 10 AM for our in-person gathering at St Laurence or at 7:30 PM for our Zoom gathering.

Please register with Curt at the office either by email (office@saintlaurence.ca) or telephone.

Let’s journey together as we discover the bravery that comes through faith, community, and trust in God.

All are welcome!
