Our church, located in Kingsville, Ontario, Canada, has a long history, with roots dating back to 1817 when a small log Methodist chapel was built in the Kingsville area. Property for the church at its current location was purchased in 1891 and construction completed in 1893. In honour of John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, the new church was called Epworth Methodist Church, after his birthplace of Epworth Rectory in England. After the union of the Methodists, Presbyterians and Congregationalists in 1925, the name became Epworth United Church. A devastating fire in 1935 destroyed a large portion of the old church. The current structure is the result of a rebuilding effort that began the same year and completed in 1936.

Grace United Church is a lay-driven community of faith, located in the south end of Peterborough, at the corner of Monaghan Road and Howden Street, across from Kenner Collegiate. The strength of the congregation is in the people. Our congregation depends on the faithful and active ministry of the people of Grace. We are a multi-generational group of individuals who together seek to support and encourage one another in our Christian faith. We want to share God's love and compassion with all who enter our doors - and with those who are far from our doors - helping them to connect with the presence that is within and beyond so that together we can experience each day to the fullest.

At Orleans United Church we strive to care for others at every stage of life: Our church family welcomes children of all ages with open arms in worship, Sunday School, and fellowship time, trying to teach and show Jesus’ love personally to each child. We respect and support the unique expressions of our teens, helping them claim their faith as part of growing toward adulthood. We reach out to young parents who are longing to find honest ways to give their children a positive experience of faith, and who recognize their own spiritual yearnings. We embrace adults of all lifestyles, family circumstances and ages, supporting and encouraging them to live their faith as fully as they can. We care for folks who are maturing physically and spiritually and offer them ever expanding alternatives to keep learning and growing in faith.

Together, with parents and caregivers, we will continue to push for the social, legal and technological changes that increase accessibility and independence, allowing people with disabilities to dream their own dreams, for the next 60 years, and beyond.

Growing a Wood - Growing Community - Growing Knowledge and Understanding 10 years - 10,000 children - 10,000 trees This is a conservation project that has its eye set firmly on the need for future environmental stewardship. Planetary conservation and protection of biodiversity needs more champions than ever before and the young people in our society are the decision-makers of tomorrow. With a growing disconnect between young people in urban communities and the natural environment, it is more important than ever before to put them at the heart of environmental projects. We have formed a COMMUNITY of 25 local schools, youth groups, volunteers and businesses working in partnership together and with specialist environmental organisations. Our aim over the decade 2012-2021 is to involve every young person in our community in creating new woodland, somewhere to relax, to enjoy, to learn. Once the 12-acre wood is complete, tree planting will continue through partnerships with local landowners as we plant outwards from Harmony Woods creating green corridors that link to nearby woodland and copses. We offer regular volunteering in nature for all irrespective of age or ability and offer training in green crafts, including coppicing, constantly striving to grow the volunteer base both in numbers and capacity. The first 5 years were spent establishing the project; the second 5 years is about realising its potential, a major part of which is to support 6 of our 25 schools to develop programmes of outdoor learning linked to arts and science and based on the wood that their students are helping to plant. We are currently fundraising to employ an education officer, fund outdoor learning programmes led by local artists and convert a pair of steel containers into an off-grid woodland 'Cabin', an all-seasons base for volunteers and a teaching space for all, connecting people to nature and local heritage.
