Visions in the Cloud – Mar 17

Lent 5

Wandering Heart: Teach Me

This Sunday, as we sit around tables for café-style worship, we’ll encounter Peter wanting to learn all he can from Jesus about forgiveness and grace, and explore these concepts together.

Visions in the Cloud – Mar 10

Lent 4

Wandering Heart:   I'm Fixed Upon It

Peter cannot believe what Jesus tells them about his coming death. He clings to how he thinks life should unfold.
When we face difficult and inconvenient truths can we learn to see things in a new way?

Farewell to Shawn

March 3, 2024 marks an end to Rev Shawn Redden's journey with Visions United Church.

We wish her well in the next Chapter of her life...

Thank-you for your passion, dedication and care of the Visons Family.  You will be missed.

 

Pastoral Letter from Rev Shawn Redden

A ‘Thank You’ from Shawn

I am touched and very appreciative of the kindness and generosity shared with me last Sunday (March 3rd) at the “good-bye” celebration. What a wonderful potluck! Thank you to each of you who worked behind the scenes, organizing the event, preparing food, tending the kitchen, decorating, and so much more!

For the cards and messages, the slideshow tribute of our ministry together, the kind words shared, the special bouquet of flowers, the beautiful piece of New Brunswick pottery, candle, handcrafted wood cheese board, and generous gift of money – thank you! (I will likely use it once I move to purchase bookshelves for my new space, as my office will be from home. And as you know, I have many books in my library).

Friends, most especially I am grateful for your presence and taking the time to gather for the service and celebration. Blessings on your journey. You’ve been such a blessing on mine!

Visions in the Cloud – Mar 03

Lent 3

Wandering Heart:  Praise the mount

This Lent we've been joining the disciple Peter in 'figuring out faith'.

If you had to speak your faith in one sentence or phrase, what would you say? When we have the courage to say, "this I believe..." then that conviction has a ripple effect on others. When life gets rocky, we lean on mountain top moments and our deepest convictions to see us through.

Join us this Sunday as we offer gratitude for our shared ministry as Visions United with the Rev. Dr. Shawn Redden, and mark the ending of our covenant relationship as congregation and minister.
