Last Saturday 30 of our leaders, Trustees, COM, Deacons and staff, met for a half-day retreat. We spent time worshipping, praying, listening, sharing, envisioning and getting to know one another. We spent time teasing out our core values and although there were many characteristics stated, the groups agreed that, when we think of Union Church we see a caring compassionate community that is generous, missional, and maturing in faith. We also spent time thinking about our neighbours and discovered we have three -Dah Sing Financial Center, digital online community and 22a Kennedy Road. Although there is much work to be done -fine tuning and exploring further on ‘how can we love our neighbours?’ -there was energy, enthusiasm and engagement.
As we consider future ministries of Union Church, we invite you to join us in prayer as we explore together. We are living in exciting times. It is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him.” 1 Corinthians 2:9
Blessings, Pastor Michele
