In solidarity with the Ukrainian Bishops of Canada, the Canadian Council of Churches invites all worshipping communities to pray for peace and ring church bells at noon on April 24, which is Pascha (Easter Sunday on the Julian calendar), to proclaim together that Christ is Risen, that love overcomes fear,and that life overcomes death and destruction.

First Met families ring our church bell daily at noon, asking anyone hearing it to pray for those who are in the midst of the Ukraine invasion.

As a sign and celebration of hope, they have created a prayer card with three prayers. First Met will make copies of those prayers available to those who attend our April 24 service.
