Ecclesiastes 1:15 tells us “What is crooked cannot be made straight, and what is lacking cannot be counted.” What do we do when everything we see around us seems broken? What do we do when death seems to make all of our efforts amount to nothing? Is there any hope for us? Come join us Sunday as we dig into the hard truth of Ecclesiastes; nothing lasts.

Please pray for Pastor Brian and the team as they prepare for Sunday's service.

Scripture: Ecclesiastes 1:12-18; 2:12-17, 24-26  ESV

Most of our ministries are back from Christmas break! Young Adults, Youth, and Young at Heart started up last week, and Family Group begins this Wednesday. 

If you have any questions about our ministries or small groups, please reach out to the office! We would love to help you connect with the right group.

Small Groups are a key aspect of our church community. Most meet weekly in the home of a group member (usually the leader's home). These groups are an amazing way to connect and grow in your faith.

You can join a group through our website, or by contacting Josh at josh@crbaptist.bc.ca.

This past Sunday, we were answering the question "what is the meaning of life" from Ecclesiastes. The message reminded us that life is fragile, time is limited, and true meaning comes from putting God first, loving well, and trusting Him with each day.

As we step into this new year, take a moment to ask: which of these steps is God inviting me to embrace right now? And if you want to journey deeper, join us for the full series as we discover together what it means to live wisely in a broken world.
