Messy Church & Wild Church

The Willows is offering many different spaces to explore a relationship with God, connecting the community in new ways and places.

Offered seasonally on a Saturday from 11am-1pm, Messy Church is what it sounds like!  A celebration with a relaxed setting for families to share in creative activities together across the generations (parents, kids, teens or grandparents) and then we all gather to enjoy a meal together and a short program of songs and a Bible story before wrapping up.

Activities offer hands-on (and sometimes messy!) art, games or social interaction and meet the needs of a variety of ages of participants from toddlers to grandparents, everyone is welcome!

Please watch our Willows Church & Life Centre social media for upcoming Messy Church dates and use the registration link provided so we can ensure enough food for everyone.  Dates for 2026 and registration link will be posted on our Willows Church & Life Centre social media prior to each date.  Feb. 7, March 7, April 11.

Meant for all ages, Wild Church is a relaxed opportunity to connect with a faith community outside of a more traditional service.  We include a gathering time with colouring or other nature based & kid-friendly activities available (about 15 minutes), a reflection time with short, inspirational readings (about 10 minutes), a wandering and wondering time (about 20 minutes) and then a sharing and sending time with a closing prayer (about 10 minutes).  Look forward to a 6 week session on Sundays each July & August at William's Park.
