In its own words
Commons church provides multiple sunday services to the community along with a live online option. We facilitate groups that meet across the city for spiritual support and courses for the theological development that run out of our kensington facility. We also develop print and digital materials to help foster spiritual growth in our congregation. We maintain a community- supported food pantry available for neighbours and we support local and global organizations that work to close the gap between what is and what should be in the world. We continue our efforts to support refugee resettlement…
