Does the pandemic have you feeling #blessed? Me either. So what is Jesus up to when he promises that "Blessed are the spiritually bankrupt, for theirs is the kin-dom of the heavens"? (Also, what the heck is a kin-dom?) Follow us up The Mountain to find out! #blessedarethecheesemakers https://www.wildwoodmennonite.org//707-january-31-downward

Receiving this new hymnal and worship book, Voices Together, is a significant event in the life of a church. In many ways it feels like a new hymnal for a new era, with songs that remind us not only from where we have come, and where we strive to be, but with words and melodies that accompany us and give voice to the joys and sorrows of our lives. Join us this Sunday as we dedicate Voices Together to the glory of God! https://www.wildwoodmennonite.org//706-january-24-voices-t

The Law of the Lord, The Law of the Land Psalm 19 says the law of God is perfect. But what if the law of the land is far from the justice that God longs for? And what is the church’s responsibility to engage the law of the land, especially when it impacts those that Jesus is particularly concerned with the vulnerable? Despite rumors of political non-engagement, Mennonites have wrestled with the laws of the land for generations, not only advocating for change, but helping bri...ng it about. Today, Indigenous peoples are calling on governments and faith communities to adopt and comply with the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (TRC Calls to Action 43 & 48). Steve Heinrichs, Director, Indigenous-Settler Relations for Mennonite Church Canada will share with us this Sunday. https://www.wildwoodmennonite.org//705-january-17-undrip-t

Remember a week ago when everybody was excited to bid farewell to 2020, just certain that 2021 was going to be So. Much. Better. Well.... how's that working out for ya? Not so much? Take heart, you're not alone. Join us to hear about Tamar, and Rehoboam, and Josiah, and others who have felt like they'd reached the end of their story, yet found something more on the other side. #toosoon #imiss2020? https://www.wildwoodmennonite.org//704-january-10-the-end-

Behold, good tidings of great joy! The new Voices Together hymnal has all the guitar chords, complete with transposing for capo, for all the Christmas Eve carols! These things are paying for themselves already!!

Our sermon this week is a pre-recorded sermon from Rod Suderman, pastor at First Mennonite Church in Saskatoon. From Rod: I used the controversy around wearing face masks as my main example to my basic message: When crucified Jesus was raised from the dead, the world shifted on its axis, says Paul. A whole new world was initiated. To be a Christian is to have had one’s eyes opened to a new realityGod’s realm breaking into our world. Christ expects us to live according to this new reality, living into the world as it is and will be rather than merely conforming to the old dying and defeated world. In Christ, it’s a whole new world; now we’re to live like it. https://www.wildwoodmennonite.org//695-november-8-be-trans

"You are my Beloved, my own. On you, my favor rests." Is that what you hear when you step into the water (or find yourself up to your neck in it involuntarily...)? A celebration of baptism and membership. Come and see. https://www.wildwoodmennonite.org//694-november-1-baptism-

Breaking news: the "People of God's Peace" can't even keep the peace among themselves! Okay, so that's pretty obvious and probably too tragic to be joking about. So yeah, what do we do about conflict and destruction when it happens among those who claim to be followers of Jesus? Grab your lab coat and test tubes, this one is going to be a real (bunsen) burner... "Church as a Peace Lab" http://wildwoodmennonite.org//693-october-25-we-are-people

Inner peace--how do we get there? Well, you're reading this on facebook so clearly this is going to be an uphill struggle for you... but if you can resist the algorithms for just long enough to follow this link, you're invited to a leisurely walk beside the still waters and green meadows of Psalm 23. (Nevermind what you've heard about the Valley of the Shadow of Death... surely that part is #fakenews?) https://www.wildwoodmennonite.org//692-october-18-we-are-p

Happy Thanksgiving! Grab a turkey leg, loosen those pajama pants and sit back for a tale of woe from the ancient Hebrews... When it comes to searching for Peace, for better or worse, their story is our story. Okay, so it's mostly for worse...but can we make it better? Come and see! And bring your voter registration card! https://www.wildwoodmennonite.org/currently/a-recent-sermon
