THE CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY

The Christian Community is a world-wide movement for religious renewal that seeks to open the path to the living, healing presence of Christ in the age of the free individual. There are approximately 350 independent congregations worldwide. All are welcome. We encourage you to experience the services for yourself!

All who come will find a community striving to cultivate an environment of free inquiry in harmony with deep devotion. In the center of the religious life stands the renewal of the Communion Service, also known as The Consecration of the Human Being which serves as the centerpiece of sacramental life. In addition, there are six other sacraments that give renewal and direction to the natural course of our lives.

The Christian Community in Vancouver was founded in the early 1970’s by a group of young people looking to work together creatively and spiritually. They found, with the help of their first visiting priest, Rev Verner Hegg and his wife Alstan, the strengthening help of the sacraments of the Christian Community. The sacraments continue to live in the congregation.
