Who We Are

Simcoe Street United Church aspires to be a beacon of Christian faith and caring radiating from downtown Oshawa.

Simcoe Street Church is a congregation of the United Church of Canada. As such, we subscribe to Christian doctrine of the reform tradition. Click here to read about our faith tradition.

A Range of Spiritual Expression
Our Ministers declare that they are in essential agreement with the doctrine as laid out in the Basis of Union as a prerequisite of Ordination or Commissioning. However, we do not ask our members to confess any particular doctrine other than to declare their faith in God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit.This means that the United Church is quite likely the freest thinking religious body on the planet! The framework of orthodox reform theology is there to guide and inform, while offering members and affiliates to come to know God in an amazingly diverse range of experience and expression. Whether you come from a deep historic faith based on the ancient creeds or are exploring spirituality as an extension of your own soul, the United Church is the vehicle to carry you through life in respectful community.
Our Values
We care about family and community, individual integrity and honor, respect for the environment and each other.

We are an inclusive community for all individuals regardless of race, ethnicity, age, gender, sexual orientation, wealth or poverty, disability, personal history or language.

We celebrate diversity, beauty, excellence and accomplishment, history and innovation, art and music.
​
We uplift families and individuals at important turning points in their lives; births and baptisms, coming of age and confirmations, weddings and anniversaries, aging and deaths.​


​We witness to the awesome love of God for all of his children, his selfless offering of forgiveness from sin through Jesus Christ and his constant presence with and for us through the power of the Holy Spirit.

We take a stand against evil and injustice on both the small scale and in the systems of our world.

We feed the hungry, clothe the naked, advocate for the downtrodden, befriend the lonely, heal the sick, and all with a song of praise in our hearts.

And we worship! We pray without ceasing, singing songs to God, welcoming  any and all into our midst to build up the church of our Lord Jesus Christ!
