COVID-19 adjustments at Ralph Connor United

All in-person Church-related gatherings were discontinued in mid-March, 2020. We have had online services since March 22, 2020.
Sunday Worship Services are posted at the “Ralph Connor Canmore” YouTube channel – click here
Online services will remain posted for one full year, so you do not need to log in at 10 AM Sunday to see them!

For the duration of the Provincial Public Health Emergency, we will not be accepting new bookings for facility use.

SUNDAY WORSHIP

We are not gathering for in-person Worship services until the end of the public health emergency – and will reassess it then –
but you are invited to join us for online Worship each week,
posted every Sunday on the “Ralph Connor Canmore” YouTube channel!

INCLUSION

In the same way that Jesus reached out to all people, our faith community is called to be open and inclusive.

We continue to seek ways to be inclusive of all people of the Bow Valley, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, age, cultural background, education level, mobility challenges… ALL people!
