What Your Generosity Supports
The title of this year’s campaign, Being Generously Grateful, is meant to recognize how fortunate we are to have this faith community during the good times and the not so good times. We have come through a stressful year dealing with the Covid-19 virus, and yet we have shown our resilience and determination by maintaining a healthy faith community - albeit a socially-distanced one.
Over the past year, our FirstU community kept up with our Sunday services - live on YouTube - held choir rehearsals over Zoom, and even hosted successful online coffee hours. We continued our three year Congregational Focus on climate action, initiated a feasibility study on an affordable housing development on our campus, and have worked with Indigenous partners to fulfill the recommendations of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. We most gratefully welcomed Reverend Eric to our congregation, who brings a much-desired stability to our ministry, while inspiring us week after week, and feeding our souls.
Your support going forward will help fund programs like the Ajashki Garden Project and special Lifespan Learning events like OWL Summer Camp, as well as allowing us to continue to meet the spiritual needs of existing members and newcomers by offering opportunities for non-dogmatic spiritual development to our thriving, growing community.
