We are an affirming ministry of the United Church of Canada. We affirm that we are all God's beloved children, inclusive of age, ethnicity, gender identity, ability and sexual orientation. We all belong, and are all celebrated.
The gospels are full of challenging texts… and then there is Luke 12: 49-56. This week, a stressed-out Jesus calls the crowd a bunch of hypocrites and tells them he has not come to bring peace, but “fire to the earth.” In Rev. Meyers’ sermon, “Who said anything about safe?” we sit with our discomfort with this message and consider the choices Jesus demands his followers make in pursuit of the good, the just and the beautiful.

Sunday Sermon
On May 29 we received the exciting news of the appointment of Jonathan Oldengarm to the position of Minister of Music, beginning late August. Tracy Pratt, chair of the Search Committee, detailed the extensive interview and audition process, while outlining Jonathan's background, performance credits and passion for collaboration and community.
Jonathan will join us in late summer. Read his letter to the Met community on our news page. Thanks to the Search Committee for their dedicated work, and we look forward to making music with you soon, Jonathan!

A quintet from the Metropolitan Silver Band presented Solid Silver under the direction of Fran Harvey to wrap up Noon at Met for the season. A delightful programme of brass quintet music covering a broad range of styles including Renaissance Dances, well-loved classics and folk melodies, and even some movie music.
