Sargent Avenue Mennonite Church
Our Ministries
​
Adult Sunday School
The adult Sunday school class, which meets every Sunday morning at 9:45am, is a place to explore and grow in our faith. Classes include Bible studies, book studies, and discussions about God, faith, church, life, and many important current issues.
Adult Choir
Choral music has been an integral part of worship at SAMC since the church’s beginning. The adult choir is open to anyone who loves to sing. Just as in preaching, music's role is to bring the Word of God to its listener, encouraging her/him to greater faithfulness to that Word. Along with singing regularly in the worship service, the choir has presented many of the classic oratorio/cantata works, as part of regular worship, or on special occasions.
Kids Choir
The Sargent Junior Choir is open to any children in Grade 1 through Grade 7. We meet every Wednesday evening at 6:30pm - 7:30pm from September until May to rehearse, visit and worship God through our voices. Some of the children in the choir are from the SAMC community but we are also blessed with children beyond our community who become part of our choir family. Approximately one Sunday a month the junior choir provides worship music for our congregation. A highlight for the choir is the annual musical which occurs in May each year. Every choir member has a part in the musical.
Youth
Our youth program (grades 6-12) runs yearly from September until June. We focus on building relationships between youth, sponsors and the broader church community by gathering together twice a month and by participating in Area Church (Mennonite Church Manitoba) wide events throughout the year. We have lots of fun events often with singing, as well as learning pieces and service work activities.
Youth also has time together each Sunday morning at 9:45am before the regular service during our normal Sunday School hour. During this time we more intentionally focus on bible studying and conversations regarding the ways our faith informs our actions and can be relevant for us today.
Young Adults
Young adults (generally aged 18-30+) meet once a month for fellowship lunches, games, service events, singing, and conversation. If you consider yourself a young adult, you are welcome to join us.
Potluck Group
A fellowship group that meets monthly to help people build community and nurture faith.
Care Giving and Pastoral Care
SAMC is committed to helping people live the abundant life God offers us in Christ. Our pastoral staff are honored to journey through life’s difficult and joyful times with people. We also have a care giving ministry for individuals who could benefit from greater support and encouragement. Whatever your life situation, we hope and pray that you will experience God’s love.
