Our church building says a great deal about us. The
design is interesting and a delight to view - from any angle. From our
front solid wood, tall front doors to the lines of the roof to the brick
and stone work, you have plenty to please your eye. We maintain our building
well because we are proud of it and wish to preserve our heritage and
keep it as an ongoing place of worship of God. |
|
| Our wood furniture and construction radiate warmth. Our communion table,
the Bible, and candles are the centre and focus of our worship area. Dedicated
members regularly provide us with flowers and plants for the sanctuary during
worship services and we greatly appreciate all that they add. |
|
| A view from a slightly lower angle with a taller perspective shows our
cross. An ornately carved cross mounted in the corner on the wall behind
and above the choir area. |
|
| A closer view of the cross gives a little better appreciation for the
hours of carving and care that went into the creation of this item. |
|
| To the left of the communion table is the baptismal font. |
|
| This is the pulpit area from which our messages and sermons are delivered. |
|
| Wonderful seating is provided for the minister and any guests. These chairs
are works of art with solid construction techniques and good padding for
the comfort of the occupant. |
|
| On the wall between the pulpit and the cross is a multicoloured quilt.
The cross pattern is visible from within the multiple coloured squares to
remind us of Jesus Christ who was born and died for us and to take away
all our sins. |
|
| The historic scroll listing those of the congregation who volunteered for active service with Canada's Fighting Forces. The space for names is almost full. |
