At UChurch, we believe that we are one community with many interrelated parts. So jump in and get involved with a Serving Team that interests you; we have lots of opportunities available! If you have been blessed with certain talents or skills that you would like to put to use by volunteering with UChurch, please contact the team leader of the group you are interested in. Tell them about your interests and your strengths, and how you believe you could assist their team.
Hospitality: greeting and ushering can be a great way to introduce people a pleasant experience at UChurch. Guests often say that it was a friendly face and genuine words of encouragement that kept them coming back and helped lead them to Jesus. The time commitment involves about four hours every third Sunday with duties that include:
• Greeting people and ushering them to their seats
• Picking up & returning the coffee; ensuring it is set up outside the church auditorium before the service begins
• Distributing offering envelopes & connection cards
• Conducting a head count
• Tidying up the auditorium before and after the church service
• Being alert to security issues that may arise
• Loving people authentically the way Jesus does

Podcast/Web: have you ever wondered how Sunday morning messages get from ‘live on Sunday’ to the UChurch website to your iPod playlist? If you are curious, then this is the opportunity for you! The time commitment simply involves being present at Sunday morning celebrations and about 15 minutes after the service, as well as one hour during the week. No expertise is required; contact Erick at web[at]uchurch.ca if you are interested.
Kids Church: Kids Church is a fun, exciting, and adventurous place in which we are privileged to serve kids from grades 2 – 6.

Nursery: Nursery is a loving environment in which we bring God’s love and practical care to babies aged 0 – 2.5yrs. We care for the littlest members of God’s family by teaching them through bible stories, spending time playing games, and praising the Lord with kid’s worship music. The time commitment would be one Sunday per month during the regular Sunday morning celebration (10:30 – 12:30). If you are interested, please contact Jenn at nursery[at]uchurch.ca.
Youth: the UChurch youth group has grown and developed greatly in the last several years, and is now actively involved in missions trips, participation in conferences, and serving within the community. The youth leadership team exists to serve youth from grades 7 to 12, helping them grow closer to God and encouraging them to positively impact their schools.
