Toronto Oasis, Secular Community

Toronto Oasis will be on a hiatus this Sunday October 13th. We’ll be back next Sunday October 20th.

Some of us will be tuning into the live stream of Kansas City Oasis on Oct 13th – something you might want to try out. Note that Kansas City is in the Central Time Zone. Their meetings start at 11 am CT which corresponds to 12:00 pm ET (i.e. Toronto time).

Here’s the link to the Kansas City Oasis YouTube channel where they live stream their Sunday meetings:

NOTE: Clive Hannah is live on our regular Zoom link as part of a watch party for Kansas City Oasis. KC Oasis will start at 12 noon Toronto time. Clive is online on Zoom now. We will all watch separately on our own devices the YouTube video and we can chat and have our own discussions during the pauses in the action. Contact clive.hannah@oasisnetwork.com for more info.

Wishing everyone a safe and enjoyable Thanksgiving long weekend!
