Heritage Sunday Resource Materials

This DOC file contains resource materials for Heritage Sunday.

"At the 135th General Assembly, The Committee on History proposed that The Presbyterian Church in Canada seek to celebrate the Presbyterian heritage that exists within our congregations. We believe that the historic contributions of servants and leaders in the Reformed Tradition, as well as stories of faith within our own individual church families are often overlooked or taken for granted in our congregations. It is time for the church to recognize and celebrate our heritage! We are suggesting that the Church designate one Sunday per year as Heritage Sunday, and use it as an opportunity to celebrate the history, traditions, and individual and collective faith stories that make us uniquely Presbyterian.

The Assembly approved the motion and designated the third Sunday in February be Heritage Sunday.

The following materials are meant to serve as a guideline for ways you and your congregation can celebrate Heritage Sunday."
