Cowan Heights United Church

Cowan Heights United Church is located at 141 Frecker Drive in the west end of the city of St. John's in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. St. John's is North America's oldest city, and Cowan Heights United, a congregation of some 226 families, is the newest United Church in the city.

We are a congregation of Christian friends, celebrating God's presence among us, and inviting others to join with us. We meet for public worship each Sunday morning at 11:00 a.m. During the worship service we offer a supervised nursery for infants to age three, Sunday school classes for pre-kindergarten to grade six. There is also a youth group for ages 12 - 15 years. Our church is wheelchair accessible. There is a family atmosphere in this congregation because people of all ages enjoy being together and supporting one another as we live out our faith. That faith originates in Jesus Christ, as we strive to continue the movement that He began. Jesus reached out to all kinds of people with God's love and that's why we do not exclude anyone from the circle of belonging.

We are a part of The United Church of Canada, which is the largest Protestant denomination in Canada. It came together in 1925 as an amalgamation of Methodists, Presbyterians, and Congregationalists, but now it includes people with every kind of religious background. The United Church of Canada is an inclusive church which makes room for a wide variety of beliefs and opinions. But we all believe that God loves us and we want to respond by loving God and by loving our neighbors.

As a community of God's people we welcome new members. To learn more about our church and its program please explore our Facebook page and website, and feel free to contact our Minister, the Reverend Denine Morgan or the church office.
