We continue our church services Sunday School and Church Choir with in-person combined with on-line in real-time format (Computer and telephone connections - up to 10% of our folks are communicating via the phone on a Zoom session). Our Vacation Bible school (VBS) was run again in the summer allowing children from the church and the nearby commnuity to interact and learn about our Christian background. The program has expanded and has led to an increase in our Sunday School membership. Our VBS has added a program that allows younger people to be trained as camp staff. Our Scouts Canada group and The Girl Guides of Canada use our facilities for their well-known youth programs. We also provided a weekly 'living room' Zoom session (via Phone and computer) to help ease the stress of life. Our group called 'Friends Food and Fun' (FFF) meet on a weekly basis. This group open to all ages allows congregants and their friends to gather in a safe environment. Meals are shared trips are planned and bowling is a once a month activity. Our Saturday morning prayer group - on-line and via phone rounded out our outreach. Our Joint on-line services with 3 other United churches in the summer continued. Bringing people together from various socio-economic classes. ON-LINE FRENCH MINISTRY : We continued our French on-line only ministry - Église Sainte-Claire - we are able to attract people from all over Canada to join with us in a Sunday evening service. The employment of the second minister was funded again through direct donations and grants from the United Church of Canada and the Conseil régional Nakonha:ka Regional Council.

New programs

A new service to the community (open to all) of singing and quiet prayer (Taizé) was added as a once a month service. Also added in 2024 was opening our doors to all to enter our 'Open Sanctuary' and spend a quiet time to reflect or pray.
