Acknowledgement of the Land      Since time immemorial, Indigenous peoples have occupied and cared for this land. In acknowledging this land, the traditional home of the Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee, we seek to rebuild right relations with First Nations, Metis and Inuit peoples, to learn from them, and to live on this land with respect and gratitude for its bounty.

Chalmers Moving Forward Statement

We are continually striving to be:

• A spiritual home where people of any age connect in significant, thoughtful, and relevant ways, and where we listen to one another and freely explore important questions
• A caring, hospitable and diverse community of faith
• A restorative community of faith where decisions are made in healthy and productive ways, and where differences of opinion are acknowledged and discussed restoratively
• A community of faith that honours its history, admires its beautiful building and stained-glass windows, and rejoices in the sanctuary’s shape that encircles us
• A community of faith where the power of music underlies and strengthens our worship
• A community of faith in the United Church of Canada, where we offer our energy and gifts to the world beyond our walls, to demonstrate our faith in practical ways
