Christ Church United is a Christian congregation in the heart of southern Ontario farmlands. Our Minister is the Rev. Blair Paterson.
The most important priority for Rev. Blair’s ministry has been the emphasis on Joy, having fun and play because the Gospel is called “Good” News! – Glad Tidings of Great Joy – is what the Angel said to the Shepherds in Luke 2. So at times Rev. Blair’s a little goofy; at other times a tad outrageous – foolish even. He would say that he make mistakes, and hopes he says sorry enough.
God asks all of us to be faithful, not perfect – all of us at CCU and Rev. Blair hope that you will share your faithful witness with the rest of us ragamuffins so that together we can share the joy, hope and love of Jesus Christ with a world that desperately needs it.
And don’t worry – when Rev. Blair says world – he doesn’t mean you have to become all “Billy Graham”-esque. Nope. You are called by God to share Love with those around you – your world: family, friends, co-workers and even people you don’t really like.
So welcome to the Website of the Sinners and Saints who call Christ Church United their spiritual home. The poet Gerard Manley Hopkins once wrote that “Christ plays in Ten Thousand places” – well, lets go and try to find some of those places together.
