June 23, 2025 - This Week at McIvor

Weekly Worship Service

Thursday at 7 p.m., the first summer worship service, will feature McIvor’s Youth Group. A number of the youth will be involved in the service and we will have the opportunity to hear of how God is working in their lives through our vibrant Youth Ministry at McIvor. Following the service you are invited to an Open House in the Youth Room, with ice cream to be enjoyed by all!

There will be no service on Sunday, June 29 due to the Canada Day long weekend.

Interested in Baptism, Membership, or Child Dedication?

Are you considering baptism, membership, or child dedication? We will be having a service to celebrate these in fall and we would love to include you. If you’re interested or would like more information, contact Pastor Jon.

Changes to the Nursery Area

We want to let you know about some upcoming changes happening within our church building. Beginning this fall, the daycare currently renting space in our basement will be expanding and will start using the Nursery Area on the main floor during the weekdays.

To prepare the space for weekday use, some modifications will be made throughout the coming months. Rest assured, the space still belongs to us, and we will continue to have significant input and oversight regarding any changes. Most importantly, we will retain full access to the Nursery on Sundays for Sunday School and supervised playtime. However, you may notice that the space looks a bit different going forward. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact the church office. We would be happy to help, or connect you with someone who can.

** Please consult the bulletin board for other events and opportunities, including missionary updates and job postings. **
