Encounter the Mystery
God is Holy Mystery, beyond complete knowledge, above perfect description. Yet, in love, the one eternal God seeks relationship.
So, God creates the universe and with it, the possibility of being and relating.
Imagine a safe place and an experience, where you can be fully who you are.
Beheld.
Come in, sit down, be held by the love that will not let you go.
Belong.
To any experience offered in sanctuary that invites you to the next opportunity to learn and grow and be loved.
Believe.
In yourself, and the you that you’re becoming. You are beautiful. You are loved. You are part of the whole. Wholly love, Holy Mystery, Holy God.

Services
Sanctuary on 6th is attempting to be church differently in relationship with the Coast Salish People and the QayQayt First Nation in New Westminster. We want to walk together in a good way, repairing the damage of settler churches, reconciling with each other, and with all of creation. Sanctuary on 6th is a queer celebrating, justice-seeking place and experience, where who you love and who you’re becoming are understood as the creative genius of a loving creator who does not let go.
The timeless story of transforming love which began with a baby in a barn is still remarkably good news.”

People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
