After Church on Sunday, February 11th, 2024 we will be holding our Annual Congregational Meeting with lunch provided afterwards in the lounge. We will review the highlights of 2023 and look ahead to what’s coming in 2024. The ACM report is available in hard copy at the church or you can download it here. This meeting is open to members and adherants and anyone who loves Castlegar United Church.
We will be having a Potluck Lunch immediately after our Worship Service on Sunday, January 21, 2024. Bring a dish to share or simply join us for the meal. Let’s welcome the New Year with some good fellowship!

“And when was it that we saw you a stranger and welcomed you or naked and gave you clothing?”
“Truly, I tell you, just as you did for the least of these, your neighbours, you did for me.”
Campus United is holding a coat and winter gear drive in October. Students on restricted budgets often have to choose between school books, food, or winter gear. This is especially a problem for single parents and for international students coming from warm climates, who thought they were prepared, but are still learning about Canadian winters and what cold really is.
Do you have a spare winter coat in decent shape? How about mittens and hats? Or do you love shopping sales and have the budget to buy an extra for someone without? There will be a Campus United collection bin at Castlegar United Church until the end of October.
Our Campus Connectors will be distributing winter gear to students in need at Castlegar United Church on October 27th. Nelson United Church and Trail United Church will also each host events in early November.
