FAQ
You say EVERYONE is welcome, but I am really not sure you mean someone like ME!
We accept each other as we are and welcome the ministry and participation of all persons regardless of age, gender identity, gender expression, health, race, sexual orientation, differing abilities, religious or ethnic background or economic circumstance. We hope that in all we do including our worship and community life, God’s unconditional love is experienced.
Car, bus, foot or bicycle
We have a parking lot immediately behind the church, street parking around the church. Many people enjoy walking to church and buses pass directly in front along Hunter St. E.
What should I wear?
Wear whatever you are most comfortable in. Jeans are fine. Some people prefer to dress up. We just appreciate your presence.
What happens during the service and how will I know what to do?
All worship services are user-friendly; lots of direction is given. Don’t worry! Everything is clearly outlined in our order of service, which is handed to you by one of our greeters.
I was not brought up in the United Church. Is there a place for me?
Yes. No one here knows everything. Beginners are welcome on Sundays and at all our programs.
If I bring an infant in a stroller, can I easily gain access into your building?
Our main and lower floor, including our worship space, are stroller accessible.
Are children welcome?
Yes, we love their energy and enthusiasm.
What provisions do you have for people with disabilities?
Our main and lower floors, including our worship space, are wheelchair accessible.
Do I need to bring money?
We do collect an offering at each service, but you will see that not everyone puts something on the plate as it is passed around. Some people have an automatic monthly donation taken from their bank account (pre-authorized or “PAR” for short), some make an offering only once a month, some people make their offering by donating their time as that is what they have to give.
Everyone is welcome. Come as you are.
