In Our neighbourhoods, as it is in heaven

Relate Communities are weekly in-home gatherings for our Relate Church family. While they resemble small groups, Relate Communities bring a unique touch to our gatherings and serve a special purpose. These intimate home meetings offer a chance to connect with others, share life experiences, delve into Scripture, and lift each other up in prayer.

All are welcome, scroll to learn more.

 

    1. Communities are place-based, meaning, we meet with those who live in proximity to where we live. Groups are centered around neighbourhoods. We do this because we are commissioned to be salt and light in the places we call home. God never gets the address wrong.

    2. Communities are multi-generational & multi-cultural because the Church at it’s best and healthiest is marked by unity in diversity. We need one another with all of our differences, to be all who God has called us to be.

    3. Communities are not a part of what we do, but are central to who we are and where we are going as a Church. We see these gatherings as being as essential to spiritual growth as our Sunday gatherings.

    4. Communities are the primary space for us to truly practice Kingdom Life. Together, we will grow in our discipleship, as we practice the subversive communal disciplines of prayer, the study of Scripture, confession, encouragement and burden-bearing.

    5. Communities are hubs of life-giving contribution to the neighbourhoods we call home. They are channels by which we as a Church will primarily practice sacrificial generosity, evangelism & mission. We are here for the renewal of our neighbourhoods.

HOPING TO JOIN A RELATE COMMUNITY?

The first step in joining a Community is to attend a Relate Communities onboarding evening.

We host these evenings a handful of times throughout the year in order to give you a chance to hear a bit about our longterm vision for Relate Communities, as well as what our gatherings typically look like.

Our next Relate Communities onboarding evening is TBD, email your name here to be notified.

It is with honour, dignity, and respect that Relate Church acknowledges the traditional lands of the Kwantlen, Katzie, and Semiahmoo Peoples. We appreciate the opportunity to gather, worship and learn on these lands.
