Please Join Us for Worship Sunday at 10:00am.

We worship in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq People.

We’re most likely a group of people a lot like you. We are a united people who affirm and celebrate our diversity, strive for radical hospitality and extravagant welcoming to everyone regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, social situation, denomination, faith tradition, age, mental health, cultural and racial diversity, or physical limitations. We support progressive and inclusive policies.

We work, have fun, raise families, make dinner, watch sports, play sports, enjoy retirement, go fishing, create crafts, knit and crochet, make art, read books, watch movies, play music, go on hikes, paddle kayaks, walk our dogs, get messy, have a good cry, laugh often, struggle and wonder and sometimes doubt.

We come together to be the church in our place and time – people who explore the faith and spirituality of Jesus. We connect our human lives to God, to one another, to creation, and to ourselves. We love each other.

We believe that faith and science, devotion and knowledge, combine to be one in truth.

We are a group of people who love to come alongside people to make a difference through truth telling and justice seeking. We understand that life is meant to be beauty, wonder, hope, mystery, and love. Through these things we work to make the world what God desires it to be. Beliefs and values within the United Church of Canada are quite diverse and Orchard Valley United is no different. We believe that diversity is beauty. The New Creed (United Church) is one statement of faith from the United Church we believe represents what you’ll find here.
