DNA Group

Erin and I have been living in Milton for a few years now and we’ve only now just found a church that we like going to. It’s called The Village Community Church and they hold their services at the Galaxy Cinemas at Thompson & Steeles. Tonight was the last night of a 10-week study group (which they call a “DNA Group”) that serves as an introduction to the church where they clearly lay out their approach to ministry and what it means to be involved. Lots of churches that I’ve been involved with have their own way of saying “this is who we are” but this is the first one that I’ve been to that really resonated with me. I can’t really nail down precisely why this is but a big part of this is simply that everything that was presented came across as authentic to me. One other custom that The Village has that I really like is that they don’t pass a collection plate. If you want to donate you can by placing something in a basket at the entrance to the theatre. It’s a small thing but I think it speaks volumes in terms of the way they want to interact with people. I’m happy to say we’ve found a church home.
