Best Congregation Winnipeg Near Me

4worldlovers: CFRUC is a safe place for all people to gather regardless of race, creed,

CFRUC is a centre for spirituality and the arts in this community – a place where community can grow, gather and flourish.

The foundation of our church and congregation is service. We achieve this through community programming, supports to the arts and by participating in broader social justice initiatives. Our building and grounds provide a welcoming gathering space for community to connect, learn and enjoy the arts.


On average yearly, we host more than 10,000 attendees at public events. Our church facilities can accommodate a variety of functions including meetings, workshops and concerts. Wheelchair accessible spaces are available. We have added recording and live streaming capabilities to what we offer.

We maintain a Christian education program for children and youth. At the same time we look beyond our walls to support the needs of the children in our neighborhood. Along with our arts partners, we provide enrichment programming to children and youth. The Fort Rouge Child Care Centre is located in our building.

We believe in the positive impact of the arts and this message is central to our purpose. We provide arts programming and are a venue for musical, visual, literary, and performing arts events. Artfest is our lively annual festival celebration of the arts.

We have a vibrant 55 plus presence in our faith community – energized, action-oriented and engaged. Community-focused programming celebrates and connects seniors. Join a music class, walking group or simply visit us for coffee and socializing. We offer opportunities to explore the arts, engage in a variety of workshops, or become a volunteer!

We believe to be faithful is to be engaged with the world around us, to live with respect in Creation, to love and serve others and to seek justice and resist evil. As we live out this faith, we have found a variety of ways to reach out to support families, seniors and many arts and choral groups.

Reverend Marc Whitehead offers worship online and in person, if health regulations permit, every Sunday at 10:30 am. We interpret the Bible seriously but not literally and seek the Spirit in everyday life. We love music at CFRUC and our services are enlivened under Music Director Michael Cutler. We also offer special services such as Christmas Eve and Good Friday, as well as weddings, funerals & baptisms.

4worldlovers: We look forward to walking with Tricia as we move forward in our Mission to be the hands and feet of Christ at Westworth and beyond.

Our mission is to be the hands and feet of Christ within Westworth and beyond.

Westworth United Church is a member of the United Church of Canada. We are located on Grosvenor Avenue at Lanark Street in River Heights, Winnipeg. We welcome visitors and new members to our congregation.

We Celebrate Christian Faith through thoughtful and challenging worship, opening ourselves to spiritual growth, encouraging all to share their gifts and inspirational music.

We Build Community by inviting others to journey with us, extending hospitality to all, accepting and celebrating diversity, respecting and supporting each other and embracing the contributions of all generations.

We Reach Out by actively offering our time, talents and resources; advocating for social justice and ecological justice; demonstrating compassion and living our commitment to service in all our relationships.

Westworth strives to be open and inclusive. Our building is wheelchair accessible and scent free. We welcome everyone who seeks to know God through Jesus Christ.

Music is an important part of worship and life and Westworth. We currently have an adult choir and a wind band. In past we have had a handbell choir, youth choir and childrens choir which could be revived if there is sufficient interest.

We offer Sunday school from nursery to grade 7, a youth group and regular adult Christian education programs. Our Messy Church program brings together families for sharing, worship and fellowship. Child care is available for children under 3 during the service.

Yours are the eyes through which Christ looks at the world with compassion.

Yours are the feet with which Christ walks to do good.

Yours are the hands on which Christ relies to offer blessing.

Yours are the hands, yours are the feet, yours are the eyes;

Christ no longer has any other body on this earth but yours.

Let there be gentle rain, off and on, and cooling temperatures until all fires are out, and all people and flocks are safely housed and cared for.

May caregivers care well for those fighting fires: nourish, shelter, and love them into healing.

May goodly rest fortify the strength and will to persist for all who are affected by these fires from coast to coast.

May God be with all who face fear and heat and smoke. May God bless those who work to stop the fires. May some balance come for those displaced, lost, or hurt. They are not alone. We are not alone. May God send peace into all the upset, frustration, and fright.

Thank you, God, for what you are doing in and through us. Amen.
