News & Announcements


New 8:30 am Masks Required Service
We recognize that there is a spectrum of comfort levels with masking protocols, so we have added an 8:30 am mask required service for those who feel most comfortable where everyone is wearing a mask. Masks will continue to be optional for our 10:30 am service. We will continue to encourage social distancing at both services.

We also offer our worship gathering live online at 10:30 am and on-demand beginning Sunday afternoons. Go to live.mylivinghope.ca or search Living Hope Regina on YouTube.

Sunday Morning Hope Kids
Our Hope Kids in-person programs are running during the 10:30 am service! Kids grades 4 and under can bring a grown-up to the Check-In hallway and one of our volunteers will show you which classroom your age group is meeting in.

MidWeek // Wednesdays // 6:45 – 8:15 pm
MidWeek is an evening of discipleship for kids, youth, and adults conveniently on the same night. It is a moment in the middle of your week to be together with family and friends to worship God, grow in your faith, and just breathe. visit mylivinghope.ca/midweek for details on everything running at MidWeek this fall and to register for classes.

Pray First // Sunday Mornings // 9:40 am
Matthew 12:13 says that the church is to be a house of prayer. We want to make prayer the cornerstone of everything we do at Living Hope. We have seen God moving in powerful ways through the faithful prayer of his people. Join us every Sunday morning for corporate prayer as we seek to hear God’s voice and boldly pray for His will to be done here.

“Father, by your Spirit, draw us close and create in us an unquenchable desire to sit at your feet and hear the whisper of your voice before all else.”

Celebrating the past year+ 
We would like to honour significant life events in a photo montage that captures graduations/commencements, weddings, adoptions/births, or deaths of Living Hope congregants that have occurred since March 2020. Please include the name of the person or persons, the type of life event, the date of the event, and one photo to: photos@mylivinghope.ca . The last day to submit is midnight on September 13, 2021. The montage will be shown during our September 26th service.
