Welcome

Welcome to Lynn Valley United Church!

Lynn Valley United Church is a congregation of the United Church of Canada with more than a century of worship, service, and community engagement in the North Vancouver neighbourhood of Lynn Valley. Rooted in faith and guided by a spirit of compassion, we carry out our ministry and outreach by serving our local community, building connections across the province and country, and supporting projects and communities in need around the world.

Our mission statement is the heart of our community and shapes the way we worship, serve, and grow together:

Lynn Valley United Church is a spiritual community rooted in Christian faith that welcomes all as beloved people of God, fosters growth and transformation and cares for all creation.

 

All are truly welcome in this place. Here, every person is valued and respected, regardless of society's labels or the path that has brought them here. We strive to be a community where belonging, acceptance, and care are at the heart of who we are.

We believe in the goodness of all creation; we know that God is within us, between us, and around us. We know our spiritual practice helps us remember who we are, and whose we are - beloved children of God. This practice leads us in serving the community of Lynn Valley.  At Lynn Valley United Church, we look for goodness and wisdom in the world around us. We celebrate the power of God’s Spirit, which breathes new life even into troubled times.

We are a community of people of all ages who seek to nurture their spirituality in a place that welcomes questions as much as it offers answers, and that encourages living with respect for all of creation.

We welcome everyone, wherever they may be on their own life and spiritual journey. We also connect with partners who share our values and vision, working together toward a world where peace, love, and light are experienced in the everyday.
