Welcome!
Stony Plain United Church is a dedicated family that welcomes all. We pride ourselves on being open, friendly and inclusive. We work hard at building community within and respecting one another’s differences and showing empathy. We share many of the same values. If something needs to be done, there are always volunteers willing to lend a hand, which speaks clearly to our mission: “To reach out, through the Gospel of Christ, to minister to our congregation, local community, national and world families.”
The programs at our church change according to season, needs, and interests. Current ministries include weekly worship; Pastoral Care; adult study; Music and Choir; an Endings and Beginnings program to support those dealing with grief and death; Card Crafters; Quilts for Seniors; youth group program; and Sunday School.
The original sanctuary of our building was built in 1957, and in 1994, a large new sanctuary was added. Our Church is well-maintained; versatile; open for community programs; has a variety of meeting spaces to meet the needs of various sized groups and is shared with many groups.

Fall News
Woo-hoo! In case you missed the meeting last Sunday, our congregations voted in favour of accepting the recommendation of the Joint Search Committee to call Reverend Heather Koots to Stony Plain Pastoral Charge effective March 1, 2019. We look forward to working with Reverend Heather! Copies of the minutes of the Oct 28 meeting are on the table outside the Sanctuary.
