Why Christian Unity Matters in a Divided World
The Church is beautifully diverse. Across the globe, Christians worship in different languages, with different styles, and through different cultural expressions. Even within denominations, there are rich variations in theology, liturgy, and ministry. These differences are not obstacles to overcome; they’re gifts to celebrate! They reflect the creative work of God and the depth of God’s kingdom.

Celebrating 1700 Years of the Nicene Creed
The year 2025 marks a significant anniversary in the history of the Christian Church—the 1700th anniversary of the Council of Nicaea. In 325 AD, church leaders gathered in Nicaea, now modern-day İznik in Türkiye, to affirm the faith we still hold today through the Nicene Creed. This creed remains one of the most unifying statements of belief across Christian traditions, declaring our shared faith in the triune God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Unity in Division: Week of Prayer for Christian Unity 2025
This isn’t about planning another event or ticking a box. It’s about listening to Jesus’ question: “Do you believe this?” Let that question guide you in the weeks ahead, and take this time to pray for the Church—not just your church, but the Church.
If you decide to participate in this year’s Week of Prayer, know you’re joining with believers across Canada and around the world who are praying for the same thing: unity in Christ. And maybe, just maybe, we’ll catch a glimpse of what that unity could look like.
