Our Mission Statement
Worship of God, nurture of one another, and the struggle to be faithful to God's will lie at the centre of our community and our outreach. We affirm that all who seek to live faithfully regardless of ability, age, class, ethnicity, gender race or sexual orientation are full participants and all are urged to take full responsibility in the life, membership and leadership of the church. The mission of the congregation is to live the love, justice and freedom of Jesus Christ:
-
For members and adherents: education, nurture, discipleship, worship, celebration, witness and proclamation.
-
For the community adjacent to the church: hospitality, witness, presence and proclamation.
-
For Canada and the world community: partnership in mission and service and response to calls for solidarity.
United Church of Canada's: 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. Thanks be to God.
