Sunday Evening Church
SJR has shifted to a unique and special Evening Service in the centre of Richmond.
Our Sunday Evening Church gathering begins at 6pm. Sunday gatherings feature great music, children's and youth ministry, refreshments and conversation afterwards. A terrific way to end the day and begin the week!
At SJR we worship God with classic Anglican liturgy: an ordered service with singing, prayer, reading, preaching, and response, all of which help us worship God in a thoughtful way. In our Evening Prayer or Holy Communion services (Holy Communion services are held on the first Sunday of each month), we recognize our sin and need for God's mercy, hear the affirmation of his forgiveness and grace, and respond with sincerity and joy. The congregation are not spectators, but engaged and involved throughout the service.
More information, along with the downloadable weekly service sheet (Liturgy) and song sheet (Lyrics) are available here.

Midweek service of Morning Prayer: While Sunday Evening is our primary weekly service you are invited to join us for a midweek service of Morning Prayer online on Zoom. We follow the classic 1962 Canadian Book of Common Prayer liturgy.
We are projecting an ambitious summer for SJR, and remain absolutely dependent upon the Good Shepherd to feed, guide, and protect us.
Beginning Wednesday, June 4th, we are inaugurating a dedicated Parish Prayer time of Simplified Wednesday Morning Prayer for 30 minutes, 8:30am-9am, every Wednesday through the summer. We will follow a simple liturgy, without a sermon, and allow plenty of time for participants to pray for the needs of the church and the work of God in and through SJR.
Link to join our Wednesday Morning Prayer Service, 8:30am-9am.
