We Are Called to Be the Church…

Faith was never meant to be practiced alone. Jesus tells us that “where two or three gather together as My followers, I am there among them” (Matthew 18:20, NLT). But, there are 168 hours in a week, and we gather as a worshipping community for only one of those. What is it to be part of the full life of the church?

Join us as we explore what God is calling us to be as part of Emmanuel United Church.

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.
