Canaan Fellowship
Canaan Fellowship is a non-denominational church located in Clermont in the Hudson Valley, just off route 9, right next door to the Town Hall. We are within 8 miles of the villages of Tivoli and Red Hook - 90 miles north of New York City and 60 miles south of Albany.
Canaan Fellowship began originally around 25 years ago in Highland NY. Around 1989, members of the church started to move away from Highland, and the church relocated to Clermont NY. We met in homes for several years, until our numbers had grown large enough that we no longer fit in a large living room for meetings. We have since moved to our present location next door to the Town Hall in Clermont.

Luke 14
Verse 12 - This is a passage that gives us insight into giving. We should open our homes to the poor, needy, maimed. We must examine ourselves and ask whether we have something to give.
Verses 16-23 - Following the comment of eating bread in the kingdom of heaven, Jesus followed it up by saying that the wealthy were the people who were searching for excuses not to attend. God wants you to come because you want to come. Ask yourself whether you have the desire to come to God's banquet. What are the riches that keep us from God's banquet?
Matthew 22
Verses 1-14 - This is a wedding feast. The spiritual parallel here is significant. When we are invited to the feast, we are given the wedding garment (righteousness of Christ). God gives us His garment because ours are unworthy.
