As we begin this new season at Emmanuel United Church, we, Tracy and Will, want to extend a heartfelt welcome to each of you. Whether you’ve been part of our community for many years or are just stepping through our doors for the first time, know that you are welcomed with open arms and open hearts.

This is a time of fresh beginnings, a season where we reflect on where we’ve been and look forward with hope to what lies ahead. In this spirit, we invite you to journey with us as we explore new opportunities for worship, service, and connection. We believe that Emmanuel is a place where everyone can find a sense of belonging, where your gifts are valued, and where your spiritual journey is supported.

We are excited about the ways we can grow together in faith, deepen our relationships, and serve our wider community. As we gather for worship, small groups, outreach, and fellowship, we hope you’ll feel the warmth of our church family and the presence of God’s love guiding us all.

As ministers, it is our joy and privilege to walk alongside you, to listen, to encourage, and to lead with compassion. We are ready to welcome your ideas, your questions, and your hopes for the future.

So as we embark on this new year together, let’s embrace the journey ahead with courage, kindness, and a deep sense of gratitude. Welcome to this new chapter at Emmanuel—let’s make it a year filled with faith, friendship, and meaningful moments.

With blessings and joy,
Tracy and Will
Ministers, Emmanuel United Church
