Community Connections
Weird Church is both a spiritual community and a neighborhood hub for connection, resilience, and wellbeing.
There are loads of ways to get involved in this awesome place!
God Squad
The God Squad is the leadership team of Weird Church.
We are a group of 8-10 folks who hold the spiritual wellness and overall vision of Weird Church. We meet (approximately) quarterly have four primary activities: holding the broad view of the church and the neighbourhood and assessing wellness of the community; dreaming and discerning for the future; supporting, encouraging and equipping ministry staff; and ministry staff accountability.
Actions Teams
Weird Church Action Teams are groups of volunteers who serve together according to their gifts and skills. Alongside staff, these teams take the commitments of “spirituality, community and justice” into action.
Action Teams allow for short term projects and/or long term participation and are currently organized into four core teams:
Children & Youth
This group supports and encourages the full inclusion of children, youth and young adults in the Weird Church community
2. Food Shed
Members ensures the Food Shed is adequately stocked with nutritious, shelf stable food for the neighbours to access as needed. There are many in Cumberland who are experiencing high food insecurity right now and Weird Church is here to help.
3. Brick & Mortar
All things building!
special projects, renovation, restoration and basic upkeep to ensure this heritage building is in good repair
4. Music
This group works together to plan and play music at our Sunday Gatherings (and more!)
Small Groups & Activities
All the rest of the ways we build community, seek justice, and grow spiritually together. They can be singular events (Chili Cook-off), seasonal (book studies), or ongoing (Weird Cinema), and cover a wide range of interests and actions.
Check out our events page for our list of upcoming events.
Weird Cinema
Indie Film Screenings in the Heart of Cumberland. Weird cinema couldn’t be possible without our amazing volunteers! If you love cinema why not spread that love by volunteering to help with concessions, set-up or clean up. If you would like to volunteer your time please click on the link below!
