Hello from Collective 2026! 👋
As you know I am away at collective 2026 the gathering of the United church of Canada and the Presbyterian Church in Canada youth and young adults and their leadership.
What a great time this has been with over 500 folks in attendance, one can imagine the energy that is flowing at worship. So far my days have been filled with worship, Keynote speakers and workshops.
I’ve been engaged and thought about critical Hope and what that looks like. I’ve been encouraged to stretch further to dream bigger. My heart has been full, surrounded by so many caring folks, each aware of boundaries, each aware of uncomfortableness, each aware that they are loved.
I can’t wait to get back and share of the adventures. Take good care of each other.

Change for Change Campaign – The Outreach Committee is inviting everyone to collect their loose change over the summer and donate it to the Mission & Service Fund. Lovely decorated collection bags are available at the church, or you may use a bag of your own. Please return your collected change by the end of September. If you would like your donation included on your year-end tax receipt, please be sure to clearly label your bag with your name.
If you are not into collecting coins, our campaign is online also… help us turn change into change! Click here to help https://www.canadahelps.org/en/charities/119197150RR0001-st-pauls-united-church/p2p/change-for-change
