Weaving a faith that matters… may the Spirit stir us on!
At United Churches of Langley, we believe that God loves without restraint, that life is a gift to be valued, and that the ultimate demonstration of love is to serve.
We honour with gratitude that we live and gather on the unceded and ancestral lands of the Kwantlen, Matsqui, Katzie and the Semiahmoo people. We honour their faithful stewardship of the land and seek to walk in the Spirit of reconciliation.
We are moving forward with hearts open to the light of the Christ, which surrounds us and is in us. The journey is ours, the Mission is God’s and together we are discovering how to be a part of what God is already doing. We welcome you to join us on the adventure.
At United Churches of Langley, we live out an inclusive theology and a passion for the love of God revealed in the Christ and in the community.
At United Churches of Langley, everyone is welcome and included.
We are a progressive Christian community made up of people of all ages who believe in a God who loves diversity. So, we do our best to welcome diversity, believing that everyone is necessary.
At United Churches of Langley, we believe God is calling us to do something special. We are called to be active in the wider community - around Langley and throughout the world.
We want to break down barriers between people. We are inspired to express our faith through action.
At United Churches of Langley, we listen for the Spirit ‘poured out’ on God’s people.
We believe that the One who created this beautiful, crazy world is able to bring the reconciliation, wholeness and fullness of life to it that so many long for. We listen for the voice of God as individuals and as a community. We believe that listening makes room for the Spirit to work in a changing world.
We respond to the Spirit.
We want to speak out and bring life. We want to mend the world and bring wholeness to the broken places. We are flexible, creative and experimental, hoping to participate in the emergence of new life. We believe in a Creator who longs to love us into what we are intended to become.
At United Churches of Langley, we believe in practicing sustainability.
We are committed to contributing more than we take away. We want to give back more than we consume.
We hope you will join us in living out our Mission and Vision. Join us on Sunday for worship, or throughout the week at any of our gatherings.
All are Welcome. All Means All!
