THANK YOU! From the Affirming Ministry Team: We are very grateful for the strong support shown by Trinity Members and adherents. In the past years, we have grown because of the conversations we've had with you and others. It has been a learning time for us all. Your vote at the AGM confirmed that you are behind us.

UCC + Pride Month: In 2025, The United Church of Canada offered an apology to LGBTQIA+ people and communities—naming the real harm caused through words, actions, silence, and systems that failed to protect and affirm God’s beloved people. The Moderator's Pride Message, CLICK HERE, reflects on that apology—not as an ending, but as a beginning. Pride is more than celebration. It is remembrance. It is resistance. It is a witness to the sacred truth that every identity rooted in love and authenticity is a divine gift. Radical belonging is not optional—it is at the heart of the Gospel. May we continue the work of becoming a church that learns, acts with courage, and lives out love in word and deed. Happy Pride.
