Foundations is a 6-session course designed to help you learn the basics of following Jesus with others who are learning to follow as well.

Whether you’re new to the faith, coming back to faith after a while, or are just curious what it looks like to walk with Jesus, this 6-week foundation course will be held during the 9am service at Connors Hill and is meant to help you learn the basics of following Jesus, introduce you to the team and others at Connors Hill, and find out what it looks like to be part of a church community. Each 1 hour session will include a light, continental-style breakfast, teaching, discussion, and there’s a practical devotional provided to compliment what you’re learning and support you in your everyday journey.

Our hope is that you would attend the 11am service with us as part of the sessions with the people you’re meeting at Foundations or with your friends and/or family. If you’re worried about coming alone, feel free to invite someone to come with you.

We’ll meet in the Upper Room (size permitting) from 9:15-10:15am for 6 Sundays beginning January 18. If registration exceeds 8, we will meet in another room but, don’t worry, we’ll let you know before we begin and there will be signs up to direct you.

Please RSVP HERE so we can plan accordingly!

Authentic Living is a 10-week course for Christians at all stages of life, focused on spiritual growth, emotional health, and intentional living. It is part of the Freedom Session curriculum developed by Pastor Ken Dyck of BC.

We have run the full Foundations course of Freedom Session numerous times at Central, and it has been deeply life-giving for many. We’re excited to bring the Authentic Living portion of that program back into the life of our church.

Throughout the course, participants will learn how to hear and respond to God’s voice, establish healthy priorities, process disappointment and conflict in life-giving ways, and develop an authentic life plan rooted in biblical truth. This is a safe and supportive space to get real about faith, character, relationships, and the patterns that shape our lives.

The program is scheduled to run Wednesday evenings, January 28 - April 1 (10 consecutive weeks) from 6:30-8:30pm at the Sherwood Park site. The cost is $30 which covers the workbook and course materials.

Registration is required. Please RSVP HERE!
