Cherokee Park United Church This was the second retreat for our Faith Questers. The focus include a session on racism in which we viewed a video disclosing cultural racism embedded in Disney films. Our faith focus was on the life mininistry and meaning of Jesus Christ. The youth also found many fun ways to keep themselves engaged.

I recently 'found' your website and am planning to visit on a Sunday in the very near future. I am feeling a little 'put off' by religion - I was excited about the ELCA resolution to appoint as leaders individuals in same-sex relationships only to have my current church choose to not acknowledge the resolution - but am... hopeful that I just haven't found the right church home for me and my family. I hope to meet you all soon!Read More
