So if you've been around the last few weeks (or will be in September), you'll hear us talking about community groups. There are tons of reasons we think it's a great idea to get involved in a community group, but here's another angle. One group spent the summer making a difference in the fight against […]

Thanks for all the encouragement yesterday after the 10:00 a.m. service in Barrie. Man, that was wild! We're in the middle of a great series by Andy Stanley, On Location. But we had some technical challenges. Andy's messages are played back off a computer, and at the first service, a bad cable kept us from

–> This image of Jen from our Orillia campus being baptized Sunday night pretty much says it all. So thankful for what God has done in the lives of the fifteen people at Connexus who stepped forward for baptism last weekend. So thankful for family and friends who crowded the lawn to sing, pray,

We hope you can join us Sunday night for some great moments you won't want to miss. What's happening? Baptism. That's what's happening. Never been to one? I encourage you to come out. Fifteen people are stepping forward to publicly declare that Jesus Christ is their Lord and Saviour. That's a pretty powerful event. We'll
At Connexus, we dream of being the kind of church unchurched people love to attend. That's why we do what we do every weekend. That's why we are who we are. We don't do it perfectly, but we'll always do it passionately. The key is we need to be influencing the culture around us. As Andy Stanley is sharing in his On Location series,

So this weekend is one we've been waiting for/praying for. Not only are we holding services at all three campuses (Barrie, Orillia and Muskoka), but we're talking about one of the most important subjects we could ever talk about: why and how you might become a Christian. Got a friend who is wondering why anyone

You've heard us talk about creating 'irresistible environments' at Connexus for adults and kids. I'm so grateful for our Family Ministry staff and team that works hard every single week to make our children and student environments as compelling as possible. From the truth-is-stranger-and-more-interesting-than-fiction department, did you catch this story out of Utah? A seven
