St. Albans

Spirit-Led. Christ-Centred. Contemporary Urban Church

Safe Worship

In accordance with provincial guidelines, St. Albans has returned to “Code Red” lockdown status. Strict safety protocols have been implemented, and till further notice our community worships online only.

This is a challenging time for many of us. Be kind to each other, reach out, pick up the phone and keep doing all the wonderful things that you’ve been doing as we support each other through the winter.

We hope to see as many of you as possible at our online services and activities.

Peace,

Rev. Mark Whittall

St. Al’s Stories: Our DJ Meganne

Meganne Woronchak, a classical pianist all her life, walked into a St. Albans band practice rocking out to Joyful Joyful We Adore Thee and said she felt a bit overwhelmed. She was impressed with the loudness and the progressive sound of the guitars, something she’d never experienced before. 

“I was somehow drawn to it,” she said. Since that practice in July 2014, she’s been part of the band. And now she said “they make fun of me and say, not many people come on their first week and just never leave!”

St. Albans 101

Join us on Thursday November 19 at 7:30pm on Zoom for St. Albans 101: An Introduction to St. Albans Church for Newcomers and Oldtimers. So many of you have joined us since we went online in March that we thought it was time to let you know a bit more about our church community and answer some of your questions. We’ll talk about our vision, our history, our mission and ministry priorities, our governance, our finances, what it means to be part of our community and what it means to be a parish of the Anglican Church of Canada. All are welcome to join us, newcomers and oldtimers alike. This event will be hosted by Rev. Mark. Check your email, or email rev.mark@stalbanschurch.ca for the Zoom link.
