You are most welcome to join us for Worship, on Sunday mornings at 10 AM (at either Canmore or Banff, check home page of this website for location) or Wednesday evenings in the Ralph Connor Sanctuary at 7:15 PM. We often have visitors from other provinces, nations and denominations who have come to Canmore to enjoy the beauty of the mountains – we welcome you, and the diversity of religious experiences that you bring to our worship time. Communion is served occasionally (and will be served more frequently once we have emerged from COVID concerns); all who seek to walk in the path of Jesus Christ are invited to join with us at table.
In addition to in-person gatherings, which are just resuming in March 2022, recordings of our Sunday Services will be posted on our YouTube channel and Evensong may be joined by Zoom, contact evensong@ralphconnor.ca for login.
