Our Denomination

Our congregation belongs to the United Church of Canada, which celebrates it's Centennial this year. Founded in 1925 with the aim of bringing Presbyterian, Methodist, Congregationalist and other Protestant churches in Canada together, The United Church of Canada is a Christian denomination known for its commitment to uniting diverse viewpoints in a liberal theology and actions of social justice.

The denomination has ordained women to the ministry since 1936 and has welcomed the ordination of openly LGBTQ2+ persons since 1988. This denomination seeks to affirm diversity while offering opportunities for community and learning, worship, and service.

A New Creed

We are not alone
we live in God's world.

We believe in God:
who has created and is creating,
who has come in Jesus,
the Word made flesh,
to reconcile and make new,
who works in us and others
by the Spirit.

We trust in God.

We are called to be the Church:
to celebrate God's presence,
to live with respect in Creation,
to love and serve others,
to seek justice and resist evil,
to proclaim Jesus, crucified and risen,
our judge and our hope.

In life, in death, in life beyond death,
God is with us.

​We are not alone.

— A New Creed is a brief and well-loved affirmation of faith used widely in our worship (1968; rev. 1980, 1995)
