What makes the season for you? Is it church? Jesus? Christmas Carols? Family? For me, they are all family. And there’s more.

Giving Tree

Christmas is coming.
Are you not sure what to get someone?

Consider donating to a good cause on their behalf. The Presbyterian Church in Canada is helping people in many ways. You can chose one (or more) that will be meaningful to the person you’re looking for (called a tribute gift) – and they can get a card or email sent to them in recognition.

Giving Tree – Kensington Presbyterian Church, Montreal

(we are also accepting food donations for the St. Monica’s Food Pantry, and the Head & Hands items for young mothers – the box is near the front entrance.)

The online Zoom, YouTube, and print versions will still be available.

If you come, here is what you can expect:

While we still sing many traditional hymns, there are new melodies, harmonies and rhythms rising into the air from sounding board, vocal cords and even the djembe.

Change has also been in the walls and in the ground and in the pews and in the programs and in the financial outlook. So here’s just a sampling of changes made in our congregation’s life over these past years, beyond the embrace of new musical expressions.
