Denomination: United Church of Canada
Perth Road United Church is a Congregation of the United Church of Canada, located in Perth Road Village, within a beautiful rural countryside of lakes and trees, 25 kilometers north of Kingston, Ontario.
We are a predominately traditional, mature Christian congregation, part of a loving and caring Church community. We strive to keep an open mind to all that we may encounter, believing that our faith will guide us on our journey.
Services are held weekly at 10:00 am each Sunday, and begin with the "Passing of the Peace"; where during four or five minutes of joyful turmoil, all who are able, rise and greet those around them, Welcome visitors, and occasionally (when possible) mix into the center aisle.
Sunday School is scheduled so that the young people experience a planned portion of the Service, as well as receiving their weekly lessons in Sunday School by dedicated teachers. A minimum of two teachers attend every class. Classes are prepared to provide religious education to children from preschool age to young adolescents.
A time of fellowship follows each regular Service, with refreshments provided in turn by volunteers in the congregation. Bible Study and Confirmation classes are conducted when required or desired.
The church and Sunday School Hall entrances are both wheelchair enabled, as is one washroom in each building. One washroom in each building is also fitted with an approved Infant Change Table.
OUR MISSION STATEMENT
We are a community of Christians who strive to live out our discipleship, honouring our baptismal covenant, in faithful relationship to the world around us, to one another, and to God.
As followers of Jesus Christ we honour goodness, loving care, the liberation of the enslaved, standing in solidarity with the poor, in a world of diversity and complexity which God has made.
We see ourselves as partners in creation, stewards of Gods gifts, and bearers of hope for the future. We are not alone.
This vision we strive for is given form and shape through frequent worship, music, spiritual growth, study, fellowship, sharing of food, education, community outreach and interest groups, all carried out with a sense of celebration and joy, honouring the newcomer, the seeker and the sojourner.
Nothing is impossible with God!
