Confirmation
The Anglican Church of Canada confirms people of any age who have come to the stage in their lives when they are ready to affirm their baptismal vows and publicly declare their Christian faith. Each person's journey in the Christian faith is different. Some may feel ready for Confirmation in their teen years, while for others it may be as an adult. Read more here »

Faith & Film Festival

Lights! Camera! Passion! A series of six films selected to entertain, to stimulate thought, and to encourage an exchange of ideas on what it means to be a Christian in today’s world. Each film, projected on a 5' screen, is briefly introduced by a moderator. Following the film, there is opportunity for discussion. Free popcorn and cold drinks will be available. Free admission – all are welcome!. Program & schedule details here »

Do you love films? We have a place for you. The Learning Ministry is looking for new members. We meet 2-3 times a year to choose films and Lenten and Advent speakers. We take turns sharing the hosting duties at the events. If this is something you would be interested in helping out with we would welcome you. Think of it as being the CCDP jury member for TIFF!
