Small ... Inclusive ... Diverse ... Non-traditional Four words that say a lot about the Bathurst congregation. We are a small group with no church property, worshiping in the chapel at Trinity-St. Paul's United Church on Sunday mornings from September until June. During the summer we hold mid-week evening gatherings in members' homes. We are inclusive in many ways. Our members work with our minister to plan the services. They often deliver the sermon and lead the service. Our services are non-traditional. They reflect our concerns for social and economic justice and our relationship with the earth. We seek to offer an expansive embrace of welcome to people of diverse backgrounds. We nurture the Spirit by honoring and respecting individual needs and gifts. Bathurst United is an Affirming Congregation. We welcome gay, lesbian, bi-sexual and transgendered people as full participants in all aspects of our ministry.

It is becoming increasingly important that we support our program through independent contributions, and now it's easier than ever to donate! Your support will have an impact on thousands of young people each year. Thank you for contributing to Quin-Mo-Lac!
