St. Hildegard's Sanctuary

St. Hildegard's Sanctuary will be resuming regular services on September 11, 2016. We meet weekly on Sunday evenings at 6:00pm, at St. Faith’s Anglican Church, 7284 Cypress Street, in Vancouver.

St. Hildegard’s Sanctuary is an inclusive, arts-based, contemplative Christian community. We engage creativity to respond to and connect with the Holy, one another, and the broader community. During services, stations are set up around our worship space that have creative/kinaesthetic elements, with varying possibilities to paint, write, play with sand or water, light candles, offer prayers, and always there is time and space for reflection. We seek the Creator for hope, healing, rest, and sustenance, we remember Jesus, share bread and wine, and extend the invitational love of God. Whether you call St. Hildegard’s home - or simply want to visit with us - all are welcome! And you do not have to self-identify as an artist to join us. Come as a beloved creation of God!

On Sunday, September 18 we will be celebrating the feast of St. Hildegard - and we are delighted to welcome some very special guest artists:

Carl Leggo is a Poet and Professor and Papa. Carl is a Professor in the Department of Language and Literacy Education at the University of British Columbia.

Celeste Snowber is a dancer, writer, poet, and educator. Celeste is an Associate Professor in the Faculty of Education at Simon Fraser University.

Allen Desnoyers is a musician and composer and playwright. Allen is the Artistic Director of the Canadiana Musical Theatre Company, creator of the Rosebud Opera House, and co-founder of Vancouver's Pacific Theatre.

We hope you can join us… all are welcome.
