We continue to encourage you to make use of online resources for prayer. There are two main ways to do that:
The Community Boards
Either click on the image to the left for the most recent posts, or use the drop-down menu at the top of this page to go specifically to the prayer forum.
The Prayer Map
Some of this is outdated, so please send your updates to tilt (DOT) toronto (AT) gmail (DOT) com.
I promised I would have it up this week...so here it is...
How do you love to serve people?
Are you interested in serving the community around Spring Garden Church?
If yes: Click Here to take a SHORT survey.
(Note, this is about 1/30th the length of the TILT town hall survey.)
Check out the urban monks blog for the latest about prayer as a TILT community - for one another, our community, our city and beyond.
Our stories from Easter are now up on the Urban Monks blog! Peter shared a story from his hockey-playing days and Jeremy of Christ's transforming his life.
Listen to them here.
Stay tuned, I'll be updating the teachings throughout the week. Check back here.
I apologize for not yet posting Monica's teaching (TRUST! Not frenzy...), and the Easter Resurrection Stories...they will be coming shortly.
Check out an Easter meditation Matt wrote in the daily.
Also, learn more about breath prayer, which we did last night, also in the daily.
The artwork from two more of the stations from last week:
Station Three

Both at the same time
Check out the videos that were played in the sanctuary on Sunday night as the first and last stations!

As we have been announcing for a couple of weeks...in a big answer to prayer, it looks like we have the opportunity to establish a long-term connection with our friends at the Moose Deer Point Native Reserve. This summer, we'll be doing another week-long summer day camp from July 20-26. If you want to read about our experience last summer, check out these postings here. Or talk to Scott M, Becki L, Lindz, Greg K, Bill H, Barb E, or Jen-Mai at TILT!!
If you are interested, talk to Bill H or email him at billhall [at] springgardenchurch [dot] ca.
Hey everyone. So, the last couple of teachings are now up on the TILT Teaching blog. Of course, you can listen to them through the TILT podcast too!
March's devotional resources are also up!! We continue to desire for us to journey through Scripture together and this is one way to do it...check it out here.
Please continue to use the new community boards for all of their uses. Unfortunately, for them to be free, the ads have to be there, so just don't look at the top of the page!! If you want to see the latest postings, check out the sidebar at the right and click on the image under "recent forum posts".
Sorry for not yet having this month's devotional stuff up. We are awaiting the reconnecting of the Spring Garden server to the outside world!
Thanks to everyone for such a wonderful TILT Communion Potluck and baby dedications on Sunday night. What an amazing way to worship God together. I will post pictures as soon as possible.
Hopefully you have been checking out the TILT community boards. There are all sorts of things you can do there. To see the latest posts in all of the forums, simply click on the image under "Recent Forum Posts" on the right sidebar. For a tutorial on the forums, check out the proboards website here.
For our gathering on Sunday, we're having our approximately bi-monthly communion potluck where we receive and celebrate communion together over a meal. So, we'll be downstairs in the Multi-Purpose Room instead of up in the sanctuary. 6:30 pm per usual!
We don't assign food by name or anything like that, so if you are able to bring anything, please do. However, if you don't have time/money/whatever to prepare anything, don't worry about it! We always make extra and often those who need to take food home, we send some with them!!
If you haven't been at a communion potluck before, a little background...the early Christian church celebrated communion over an entire meal, rather than just as part of a worship gathering. So, that is what we are doing at TILT - framing a meal together through the celebration of communion, so that the entire meal is communion.
While we are eating, we will be dedicating our three "e" TILT children!! Bill and Shelby will be dedicating GraciE, Mon and Greg ChloE, and Jay and Michelle RyliE. This is an important part of being a community as we all commit to supporting these families in raising their children in the love and grace of God and His Body.
This weekend, from February 22-24, there is a major mission event happening at Yorkminster Baptist Church. There is a speaker from Argentina, workshops, exhibits, tours, etc. all for $35 or less depending on what you register for. Click on the image to see more!
The season of lent is upon us! We've created a forum where we can share our journeys to the cross - talking about what we have given up, perhaps why, what that is breaking us free from and how we are drawing closer to God through it.
Check out the forum here.
Typically, the Sabbath day is a day 'off' from whatever you are fasting from throughout Lent. If you consider Sunday your Sabbath, we would love to provide whatever you are fasting from! For example, if you are fasting from chocolate for Lent, it would be great to have chocolate for snacks at TILT for your Sabbath enjoyment! So, add a thread on the forum or let us know at TILT!

Sorry for the tardinesss! Listen to Gene's teaching here.
And don't forget the new way to pray!
TILT seeks to serve our city by fostering a growing, authentic, diverse community that will holistically encounter the mystery and healing of God together through worship and mission.
TILT is part of the wider Spring Garden Church community and we met here.
