Growing Deep Connections with the Creator & Creation
Join in community worshipping with creation, not just in creation. We are invited to pay attention and worship with an expectation that God is present and active in the world around us, and that creation itself has something to offer us in expanding our understanding of God. Read the Bible, sing, pray, praise under the open sky and pay attention to God’s presence with our senses so that we can experience wonder and remember that we are part of creation.
For the beauty of the earth, for the glory of the skies, for the love which from our birth over and around us lies: Lord of all, to thee we raise, this our hymn of grateful praise.

Join in supporting the service and development, peace and justice work of Mennonite Central Committee https://mcc.org at the New Hamburg Mennonite Relief Sale. https://nhmrs.com
The Relief Sale started in 1967 by individuals from Mennonite churches in southwestern-Ontario in response to the ever-growing world-wide need for relief from hunger, poverty and natural disaster and for development and peace-building activities. The net proceeds from the Relief Sale are forwarded to Mennonite Central Committee.
Breslau and area Mennonite Churches began participating in the sale by providing home baked strawberry pies. The first year, 1967, 100 pies were made. Breslau, Bloomingdale, Pioneer Park, and Listowel Mennonite Churches currently contributing to the strawberry pie project.
See you at the Sale!
Tickets for April 25-28 are available https://app.arts-people.com/index.php?show=232148 or contacting our church office@breslaumc.ca
Christ is risen!
Christ is risen, indeed!
We remember and we rejoice.
God, you are here among us.
God, you are more than a story.
Nothing is impossible with you.
Your grace, love, and mercy surround all people.
Help us to reflect this understanding to each other.
In the name of the Risen Christ, we pray. Amen.
We are hungering for hope. The world seems to be a very weary place. Where can authentic hope be found? What happens when we embody trust, surrender, openness, beauty, rebirth, and reconciliation?
Join Breslau Mennonite Church for worship. All are welcome! During the season of Lent, 40 days (not including Sundays) from Ash Wednesday to the Saturday before Easter, to experience a journey of seeking, discovery, and challenge. Hungering for Hope is our worship theme for Lent. Worship is Sunday at 9:45 am, the first Sunday of Lent is February 18.
We are preparing to renovate the original sanctuary and are inviting input from Breslau residents as to what community needs might exist.
May the peace and promises of God go with you into the New Year.
May the Alpha and Omega – your beginning, your ending, and your eternal home – guide and strengthen you. Amen.
We share in a Christmas Blessing:
of choirs of angels proclaiming Good News of peace and good will to all,
of shepherds rushing to share in this Good News,
a story of a child, born in a manger, who is Good News for all the earth.
Knowing that God is with us, we receive and share this Good News!
Advent marks the beginning of the church year for most churches in the Christian tradition. It begins on the fourth Sunday before Christmas Day. This year, the fourth Sunday of Advent is also Christmas Eve.
Advent is a time to lean into the ways that our faith invites us to watch and wait, as we seek to discern the times, to trust that even when we have questions, God is with us; still then, God is working. Advent is a time when we wonder and wander and wait together, searching for clues of the work that God is doing in our midst.
In this season of short days and long nights, O God,
teach us the lessons of beginnings;
that waiting and wondering may be the starting place —
something right and just and different,
a new song, a deeper relationship, a fuller love.
God of all seasons grant us a sense of your timing this Advent. Amen.
