Sunday, September 18 - Deep Democracy

Sunday, September 18, at 11:00 a.m.DEEP DEMOCRACY – The looming provincial election reminds us that voting is the signature act of a democracy.  However, a truly democratic society demands a depth of awareness, participation and equity that goes far beyond voting.  Unitarian Universalism affirms "the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large."  For us, democracy is an article of faith. Rev. Stefan Jonasson will preach.


Services resume at Arborg Unitarian Church this Sunday and will continue on the third Sunday of each month until May.  Dress is informal and all are welcome.


Summer services at Gimli Unitarian Church concluded on Labour Day Weekend and the church is now closed for the season. There will be a Christmas Service in Gimli on Sunday, December 18, at 7:00 p.m. Watch this page for details.

Sunday, July 31 - Music of the Heart

Sunday, July 31 at 11:00 a.m. - MUSIC OF THE HEARTAccording to an old joke, Unitarian Universalists have a hard time singing in unison because we are continually reading ahead to check that we agree with the lyrics. This service explores how, whether or not it includes words, music has the potential to uniquely give voice to the spirit. Rev. Millie Rochester is minister of the First Unitarian Universalist Church of Winnipeg.

Gimli Unitarian Church is located on Second Avenue, just north of Centre Street. Dress is casual after all, it's cottage season!— and light refreshments are served following the service.
