Good Friday experience

Church without walls:

As of now, we are hoping and planning to have a Good Friday event, similar to the "stations of the cross" we have had the last 5 or so years.

Here's last years' submission because of COVID

With painful realism, the heavy cross, the crown of thorns, the whipping of the Savior are very emotional as the drama is played out in a circular "walk" close to the audience.

​Since 2010, many churches of Cochrane have cancelled the usual "inside our walls" service, for this event to gather as one church.
This summer it is Sunday Aug 8 @ 11am, 2021! Though there is no summerfest, we will use the beautiful new Peninsula area again for the service.  Don't miss this annual community event! Free-will offering supports the Local Food Bank.

Living nativity

The Live Nativity will resume on December 3, Friday night at 7pm, where the churches will gather to reproduce the biblical Nativity story complete with live actors, live animals such as donkey, sheep, horses, etc., all acted to the biblical narrative. Join us on Genier Rd across from the Tim Horton Events Center!

carol sing and supper

​

The decision was made to create a new event that combined the blessing of a community carol sing, a community Christmas meal, and a talent show. Last year (2019), was our 2nd of this type. We again used the Tim Horton Events Centre (THEC), and about 240 people showed up for an amazing event!
Many community businesses and individuals donated and supported.
