More about Services

Incarnation on Facebook

Contemplative Fire is space and time to reflect, meditate, review, and recharge your emotional, spiritual and physical life. We provide a short time of hospitality from 8-8.30 pm, however you are welcome to use this time to be silent in the gathering place. From 8.30 to 9.30 we gather together as a contemplative and intentional community. We seek to enable reflection and meditation for all, from the novice to the experienced person. We invite you to ‘come away’ for a short time.
Contemplative Fire takes place this and every third Sunday of the month at 8pm.
Silence is the key to Peace. ... See MoreSee Less

The Season of Creation
From Sept. 1 to Oct. 4, Anglicans will join in prayer with Christians around the world to sustain and renew the life of the earth as we mark the annual Season of Creation.
“I am excited to be a part of the Season of Creation—timely and prophetic action on the part of the churches,” said National Indigenous Anglican Bishop Mark MacDonald . “Hopefully, it will capture minds and hearts around the globe.”
“I think that it’s as important a time as any to be focused on what’s happening with the environment in the world, and to be really concerned about the impacts that we’re having on the environment,” Public Witness for Social and Ecological Justice lead animator Ryan Weston said.
“This is the chance for us to engage in that thoughtfully and to really set aside some time to reflect on what role we can play and what we’re responsible for … For parishes, whether they’ve done it before or never done Season of Creation previously, there are a bunch of resources that are available to create opportunities for that kind of reflection and engagement around our responsibility towards the earth, and towards each other.”
Thinking globally, acting locally ... See MoreSee Less

Check out the marbled paper we made with the kids at the last community BBQ! All you need is shaving cream, food colouring, and many little hands to make something beautiful!

Thank you to all the hard-working volunteers who helped out at the BBQs this year and made it all possible. Hope to see you next summer! ... See MoreSee Less

Rev. Canon Michael Patterson, Rector

Michael believes that a parish community is called to make a difference in the neighbourhood in which it resides, to be a place of inclusion and justice where all are welcomed and hospitality is ‘radical’ (go ahead, ask him!). A parish is a place for people to gather and be in relationships and Michael truly believes that one does not necessarily need to believe to belong! That faith part we leave up to God’s Spirit!

We were fortunate to attend a service at Incarnation as a result of a dance our youngest daughter was performing with her Spirit Moves Dance Group.  We were overwhelmed with the welcoming spirit of the members following the service, and given that we were looking for a new “home” on our spiritual journey at the time, we believed we had Continue…
