End of life conversations are difficult to have, so there is a tendency to avoid them altogether. But if we can begin to discuss,  discern, and plan, it can alleviate confusion and heartache later on. This series will include presentations on Advanced Care Directives, MAID, Wills and Estate Planning, Funeral Arrangements and Funeral Service Planning.  

All are welcome. Please use Door B, Door C (ramp door) will also be open for those who cannot use the stairs.

Please join us - absolutely ALL are welcome!

We invite you to come to our community Painting Table  in the lower-level church hall, 607 Dufferin Avenue, Saskatoon - please enter at Door B.

The first Wednesday of the following months:  Oct, Nov, Dec, Feb, Mar, Apr, and May from 7:00 - 8:30 p.m.

Art might be what we create, but the evening is about so much more...

This is a time to gather in community to paint, to socialize, or just focus on creative expression. 

This is a wonderful opportunity to create without expectation, to express your gratitude, lament, hope, joy within a welcoming group setting where you could share conversation or listen to music, and be present with your soul and your painting. 

We are low-key and casual at the painting table.  All of the materials will be provided and light refreshments will be offered. There is no cost to participate and no particular program to follow. Come just as you are with all you are and create whatever moves you in the moment.

We invite you to A Thinker's Tea Party... a lecture series meant to gather community and share conversation.

This year, our spring lecture series is themed around important cultural and social issues.  We are thrilled to offer three lectures with four engaging facilitators sharing their time and talents with community, helping to broaden understandings of aspects of race and stereotypes, biases and inclusion, and disability, connection and community.  

Each presentation will be hosted at Emmanuel Anglican Church, 607 Dufferin Avenue, Saskatoon.   The space offers amplified sound and multiple screens to help facilitators share topic  information, PowerPoint presentations and engage in a time of Q & A more easily.

Come to one, two, or all of the lectures in the series.

There is no cost to attend the lectures and all community are welcome!  Light refreshments will be offered.

*Any free-will offerings received will be graciously accepted and used to subsidize future community programming at The Refinery Arts & Spirit Centre.
