Join us for Sunday service on August 11, 2024 at Canadian Memorial United Church, where Cathy Merchant will be preaching on the powerful teachings of Jesus regarding the two types of houses: those built on solid foundations and those that lack stability. In her sermon titled "Building Resilience," Cathy will explore how putting Jesus' teachings into practice strengthens us, while merely hearing them without action leads to fragility. She’ll also discuss reasons why individuals may choose not to act and how embracing the Gospel can enhance our spiritual and emotional resilience. Don't miss this inspiring message that encourages personal growth and stability!
