Who we are
The Diocese Of Niagara is a "large" church that is composed of some 94 smaller units that we call "parishes". Each of our parishes consists of a team that includes clergy (priests and deacons) as well as lay people who exercise all kinds of different leadership. The "large" church or diocese is headed by our elected Bishop – Michael Bird.
A number of years ago – the larger "church" – that is the whole diocese, made the decision to begin to articulate a vision to which we could aspire and with which we could align all our activities over the upcoming years.
Our true story, however, is about hospitality. We are a community of people who feel that by supporting one another in worship and prayer, we can go forth into the world and offering others good news and building the world that our Creator intended.
At the heart of our Church gathering is worship. Worship takes many different forms in our various parishes. Some parishes offer contemporary worship and others offer traditional worship. Some offer both. It's about meeting the various needs of people who wish to belong to the Anglican Church.
Another important part of our parish life is teaching. We do share our insights with one another in the hope of catching a wonderful glimpse of the God who we love. We have lots of activities which help each of us and all of us grow in our understanding of God's relationship to the world.
Finally we have a pretty strong social component – some people call that "fellowship". The people in our parishes love one another and support one another to the best of their ability.
Our story is simple. We have a 2000+ year belief in and dedication to Jesus Christ. We struggle with understanding his presence in the world today and our challenge to continue the work he began so long ago.
Back to hospitality: we'd love to meet you, whether you are new to the church or if you've been on a "leave of absence". We'd just like you to experience our community and then decide for yourself.
