Ministries are the beating of UBC's heart muscle.
Feeding the sheep of God's fold is but one of our hallowed callings join together to be the Body of Christ, compassionately accompanying each other as we look to participate in God's Caring Commonwealth.
Music
Gifted individuals lead our worship with praise music that lifts our hearts and gives true meaning to the phrase, "Make A Joyful Noise." The Senior Choir meets weekly to prepare special music for our worship services.
Director of Choir & Special Music: Helen Vincent
Pianist & Praise Team Leader: Gwen Beckman
A small group meets weekly throughout the year, knitting items to be given to express God's caring ways with the human heart's need for warmth... And now these Prayer Shawls will be awarded across many months as a gift to those who visit our Facebook Page and leave us a comment...
Bible Study & Prayer Group
A small group meets weekly throughout the year, reading the Bible together aloud, and sharing their reflections and prayers in the love of the Lord...
