Learning to love like Jesus together


We value learning about the teachings of Jesus, discussing how to be the church together, and expressing our faith in meaningful ways.


We belong to a Christian Anabaptist denomination known as the Be in Christ Church of Canada (BIC). The BIC is a family of churches with a shared mission to be a growing faith community that is following Jesus, sharing His message, and extending His peace around the world.
