Our History:
- The CIUC has a long and distinguished ministry. In November 2008, the congregation celebrated its 152nd Anniversary. Many memories and celebrations remain present in our church community which was built in 1904. The church ministry has been constantly recognized as native ministry, expressing and rejoicing together with the people of God the love of God and Jesus for spiritual hope and faith within the United Church of Canada. We also invite all the people in the Island to join with us to celebrate the grace of God and worship together.
Vision and Values:
- The CIUC is a place of worship as shared by the community of Beausoleil First Nation and is where the community of faith comes to seek peace, tranquility and share the essence of love and family with Christ. At the heart of our activities is the worshipping congregation, celebrating the inclusive love of God, made known through Jesus Christ. That love makes a difference in our lives and challenges us to make a difference in the world. Through prayer and music, friendship and service, laughing and learning, we seek to know God is in our midst and make God known to others.
