In our parish life, we strive to follow the prophet Micah’s prescription for daily living. That is: to seek justice, love kindness, and walk in humility with our God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We hope that you will get a feel for what we are all about by browsing this site. In it you can learn about our worship, our pastoral care and outreach ministries, and opportunities for personal growth through the Christian Education programmes we offer. Our Christian Education page, which you can navigate through our "Spiritual Paths" link, has details of our Bible study and programmes currently being offered or upcoming. We'd love to have you join us!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you like what you see as you browse, we hope you will check us out in person. You are most welcome to join us at Sunday worship or any other special events. Please come for a “no-strings attached” Sunday visit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;For after hours emergencies only please call:&lt;br /&gt;The Reverend Dave Ponting at 519-751-0129&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16100890-112552625677972816?l=www.graceanglican.net%2Findex.html' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.graceanglican.net/2006/11/welcome-to-electronic-home-of-grace.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Andrew)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16100890.post-4699961689718827143</guid><pubDate>Sun, 14 Mar 2010 20:41:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2010-04-14T16:14:47.380-04:00</atom:updated><title>Spring 2010 Newsletter</title><description>The Spring 2010 newsletter is now available on our &lt;a href="http://www.graceanglican.net/life/newsletter.html"&gt;newsletters page&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16100890-4699961689718827143?l=www.graceanglican.net%2Findex.html' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.graceanglican.net/2010/03/spring-2010-newsletter.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Andrew)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16100890.post-4414470734351567501</guid><pubDate>Mon, 02 Nov 2009 15:04:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-11-02T10:09:10.570-05:00</atom:updated><title>Grace Food Cupboard</title><description>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.graceanglican.net/uploaded_images/Food-drive-739050.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://www.graceanglican.net/uploaded_images/Food-drive-739048.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Those who are generous are blessed, for they share their bread with the poor."&lt;br /&gt;-Proverbs 22:9&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Grace Anglican Church is called to serve the community in need.

In keeping with our Baptismal vows, we will strive in word and action to joyfully proclaim the Good News we find in Jesus Christ. We believe God’s love transforms people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. We proclaim and respect the dignity and the value of every human being that walks through our doors. We understand that hospitality is a driving force in our communal life. Everyone has something to offer the community (spiritual gifts to share).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. We believe in striving for excellence in all our worship. We are called to continually be seeking ways to grow and evolve the worship experience we provide at Grace Church, while holding to our standard of excellence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. As stewards of the gifts of God, we strive to steward all resources entrusted to us as a faith community, including the environment. We believe and practice an understanding that our God is a “God of Abundance” in our decision making and corporate life together.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16100890-2880819229724183373?l=www.graceanglican.net%2Findex.html' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.graceanglican.net/2006/12/our-core-values.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Dave)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16100890.post-5605601374222062322</guid><pubDate>Tue, 30 Sep 2008 14:00:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-09-03T17:41:01.009-04:00</atom:updated><title>Grace Church Launches New Congregation</title><description>These are exciting times for the expanding ministry of Grace Church.  The parish has planted a new congregation in our Upper Parish Hall.  The new congregation, called "Counterpoint" is an hour of uplifting singing, prayer, teaching and fellowship.  At Counterpoint we strive to provide practical Bible-based teaching presented in ways you can apply to your busy life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Counterpoint meets every Sunday at 10:00 a.m. in the Upper Parish Hall of Grace Anglican Church.  House churches will also gather during the week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To learn more about Counterpoint, please go to &lt;a
