The United Church of Canada believes in one God
who has been revealed as Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
The Bible is the shared standard for our faith, but members are not
required to adhere to any particular creed or formulation of doctrine.
The United Church celebrates two sacraments—baptism and communion--
by which we encounter the presence and goodness of God.
Each person is a unique, loved creation of God; we welcome all people
to the full life of Christian community, including marriage.
Respectful of the religious practice of all people of goodwill,
we are a welcoming church that is challenged to ongoing renewal.
Following the example of Jesus, we believe that we strengthen one
another to work, through God's grace, for a better world.
God’s endless generosity to us encourages our own response to contribute
in many ways to God’s mission in God’s world.
