Who We Are

  • We are a real community of real people sharing our journeys, praying together, and working for social justice in Dartmouth. We would love for you and your family to join us as we explore what God has said and work out how we can live best together in this world, and in our local community. You are welcome to join us during any of our community activities, or on Sundays when we meet together for worship. If you haven't spent time with us before, feel free to check out I'm New and Who We Are. If you're already familiar with us, perhaps check out the News and Updates tab above .  If you would like to contribute to the life and ministry of the church please consider a donation by clicking here: Giving

  • We are called to be a radically inclusive, just, and loving community that seeks to love our neighbour through prayer, worship, action, and advocacy.

  • Worshiping in the Anglican tradition, we are bound by unity and diversity as a center of worship and activity for all.  Our ways of praising God and Jesus Christ are varied, dynamic, and they are experiences rooted in excellence to inspire, engage, and enrich our spiritual lives. 

  • As an affirming community, we are made to connect, respecting the dignity of every person.  Through Christian education, small groups, prayer, and discernment, we build up spiritual lives.  We seek to equip people for all stages of life, both young and old, to engage both joy and challenge in a meaningful and positive way.

"Community Ties" Blanket Project

​A no-sew blanket making project for young and old alike! Blankets will be donated to community organizations once they are finished. Supplies have been prepared and the blanket-making session on March 14th at 1:00 pm. 

You are welcome to bring your own fleece. There will be fabric and rulers available - no sewing needed, only cutting and tying! 

All are welcome to join us for this fun craft - we are hoping it will be an intergenerational service project, and if you can tie a knot, you can join in. See you there!
