As a replant church emerging from Covid, we are willing to think big and outside the box to make Erskine a story of success. Presbyterians Sharing is helping us to grow the church and use our physical space to house support programs for those in need in downtown Hamilton.

Equipping ministries in Canada
l Gifts to the church support congregations, theological colleges, camps, presbyteries, synods and specialized ministries as they nurture disciples and share our faith. Together we help emerging and experienced leaders explore new models of ministry and develop skills in strategic visioning, educational methods, evangelism strategies and nancial sustainability.
l As the church, we live out God’s call for justice by responding
to the climate crisis, rejecting racism, promoting living wages and addressing root causes of violence. We support people experiencing barriers to traditional social engagement, including refugees, sex workers, inner-city communities, newcomers to Canada and people with addictions and mental health issues.
