On
February 26, 1995 , Augustine United Church became the first
We believe that all people are children of God; that persons of all ages, races, and sexual orientations are parts of our increasingly diverse culture; and we welcome all persons into the full life and ministry of this church. As an Affirming Congregation, Augustine is a community that welcomes, recognizes and accepts lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and trans-gendered people in our midst as full and equal participants in all aspects of life, work and worship. Many members of the Gay/Lesbian/Bisexual/Trans-gendered (GLBT) community have found that Augustine is a safe place to worship and share our gifts. Supportive of Affirm United (external link), we are also a model in this area for many other churches in Canada.
