Our Ministries
We would like to invite you to explore your spirituality and develop a closer relationship with God. Read or listen to one of our sermons, give your Bible reading structure with the daily lectionary, find a program on our Activities page or from our Calendar that sounds inspiring, or serve on one of our church committees (see below for a description of the committees).
For spiritual guidance, counselling, and prayer, contact the church office at info@firstpresbyterian.ca.

Church Committees
One way a church congregation fulfills its mission is to organize itself to carry out the mission. As a Presbyterian Church, the Session is the ruling body at the local level. Session has elected members who are ordained as ruling elders. Session is convened by the Minister, the teaching elder, and its duties and terms are set out by the Presbyterian Church in Canada’s Book of Forms. The Session has oversight of everything that happens in the church, except for the budget, which is voted on at an annual meeting of the congregation.
The Board of Managers is another important committee, and it is a committee of the congregation. New members are elected each year at the annual meeting. The Board’s primary duties are the maintenance of the church building and the surrounding property; and the administration of the congregational budget. The Board’s duties are elucidated in the Book of Forms.
The Session selects convenors of various committees that do its work on behalf of the congregation.
