Christmas Eve Worship 2020
May you feel the Spirit's presence in your midst as you worship and welcome
the birth of Christ in this holy and sacred time - even amidst a world of uncertainty.
Please enjoy this recording of St. Matthew's Christmas Eve worship service:
United Neighbours Syrian Refugee Support
The second Syrian family sponsored by United Neighbours has arrived safely in Canada. Taghrid and Isam Alaalyan have six children and the coming weeks will be busy getting the children in school and the parents in English lessons. We give thanks for the opportunity to work with this wonderful family. We have an apartment and have furnished it with generous donations from our supporters.
The first Alaalyan family arrived in Canada in December 2016. They are overjoyed to
now have cousins here, safe from the chaos in Lebanon and Syria.
If you would like to help, we are still raising funds to support this family in their first year in Canada. Our goal is $60,000. You can give through CanadaHelps.org. Search for "United Neighbours." Or drop a cheque to St. Matthew's United Church with "United Neighbours" in the information line.
Get the word out! Please send this along to anyone you know
who might be able to help. Thank you very much for your help in this process –
the continued generosity of our community is inspiring. We look forward to working
with you as we accomplish this task and move towards a successful settlement.

Through our worship, we share in story, in celebrations and moments of awe, in concerns, prayers, and song.
St Matts is home to United Neighbours, Wychwood Open Door and Out of the Cold programs.
