Our Vision
The Children, Youth and Families Ministry Program (CYF) aims to affirm the significance of children and young people both at the Cathedral and in the Anglican Church of Canada and will accompany them on their spiritual journey and welcome them into a safe place of wondering, learning, belonging and growth.
Christ Church Cathedral offers a comprehensive program for children through which we work to build relationships with them and strengthen their relationships with each other as they journey deeper and deeper into the mystery and love of God.
Parents and young people are invited to connect with a member of the Cathedral clergy for pastoral support.
The CYF Minister and other clergy are available to check in with you, to pray with you, and to connect you with the supports you need at this time in your life, and the life of your family.
The core of our vision is to help children and youth to know they are full members of the community, and grow in Christian faith and relationships with others through:
- open and affirming education, grounded in scripture, tradition, reason, and experience
- intelligent discourse that can encompass a broad spectrum of ideas
- developing their capacity for informed reflection
- acts of compassion
- opportunities for service within and beyond the community
- understanding of justice
- exposure to and engagement with the arts (including music)
- participation in meaningful worship.
- opportunities for play
