Being Christian involves being shaped by the
language of Christian tradition, including the Bible as the foundation
of the tradition. Some in our church may understand Christian and
biblical language quite literally and factually.
Others understand
it symbolically and metaphorically. What we share is a common passion for the more-than-literal
meaning of the stories and teachings that shape us. ~ Marcus Borg
OMG!
Harmless Parody
or Anti-Christian Humour?

ST JOHN'S UNITED CHURCH A Journey of Faith A Future of Promise
"I was a stranger and you welcomed me." Matthew 25:35
At St John's, we strive to be a welcoming place, open and inclusive for all.
We seek ways to recognize the Divine in our lives and to share this in our families
and community. Through liturgy, music, action and reflection, we try to live Christ's message of love,
peace, compassion and justice, in harmony with the natural world.
Motion Carried, Sunday May 31, 2009: It is moved that the Congregation of St John's
United support the Official Board
in balancing the 2009 budget and
all future budgets by reducing expenses,
by fundraising and by individuals
increasing their givings.
