Our Ministry
Celebrating Birthdays and Anniversaries: This Sunday, February 2, we will celebrate birthdays and anniversaries during worship. If you have a birthday or anniversary in January or February, you are invited to bring a donation to World Development and Relief as we celebrate together.
Sock it to Ya Sunday: It’s time for the sixth annual Sock it to Ya Sunday! We are collecting socks to donate to Choices for Youth. We celebrate Sock it to Ya during worship on Sunday, February 23. You can drop socks off at the church during office hours or bring them to worship any Sunday in February! Socks are the least donated items but one of the most needed.
Epiphany Study to Introduce United Church 100th Anniversary Activities: An online half-hour Epiphany Study on YouTube will be available in all Canadian time zones by 7:30 p.m. each Wednesday evening (January 8 – February 26). Interested individuals are invited to search YouTube for “Epiphany Study” and enter the date for panel discussions on upcoming activities in celebration of the United Church of Canada's 100th anniversary. Panels may be followed by discussions at church or readings at home of related chapters of THE UNITED CHURCH OF CANADA. Copies of THE UNITED CHURCH OF CANADA are for sale from the Gower Office for $20.00.
Team Gower - Coldest Night of the Year: We are investing some of our time in fundraisings for the Coldest Night of the Year in support of Choices for Youth. Consider joining our team - Gower Street United Church, and walk with us on Saturday, February 22. The Coldest Night of the Year is a walk that raises money for folks in our community who need our help. Some of them are hungry, more than a few are hurting, and regrettably, some are homeless too. Click here (https://cnoy.w-ith.me/GowerStreetUnited) join or donate to support the team.
Contribution Envelopes: 2025 contribution envelopes are ready for pick up on Sunday mornings or during office hours on Wednesday and Thursday, 11:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.

Bulletin Dedications: The Worship and Sacraments Committee invites members of our faith community to help with the cost of printing weekly bulletins. It costs us approximately $12.00 to have color-printed bulletin covers. You may dedicate a bulletin of any Sunday in memory of a loved one, in celebration of a significant event, or in celebration of a life's milestone. The name of Memoriam/Celebration/Milestone and Donor will appear in the bulletin on the specified Sunday. Please forward any donations to the church office and contact SuAn, the office administrator, during office hours on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. via email (gsuc@nl.rogers.com) or phone 709-753-7286 ext. 200.
