Who We Are
What We Believe
Excitement, growth, new life, passion, energy, enthusiasm and hope are words
that describe the spirit at West Point Grey United Church.
As God calls us to express our faith in today's context,
we are discovering our core values, new and diverse gifts,
and different ways of being Christ's presence for each other, for our neighbourhood, and for the wider world.
Church Finances
We receive
all gifts gratefully, and they are used carefully under the direction of the
Church Council acting on behalf of the congregation. The church has its own
auditor, and an accounting is made each year of revenues and expenditures.
For more
information, contact Janis Terrien in the church office at 604-224-4388 or
