About us
We are a congregation of the United Church of Canada active in Ottawa West. We welcome people from all backgrounds, orientations, and faith journeys.
Our ministry is carried out through worship, outreach, and fun. We invite you to explore faith and spirituality with us.
We offer celebrations of Baptism, Communion, Weddings, Funerals and the meaningful moments of life. There are also gatherings during the week for specific interests.
Worship services
We offer in-person services on Sundays at 10 am. As always, if you are sick please stay home. Our services are also live-streamed at 10 am on YouTube and recorded for later viewing.

Children and youth
Children and youth are a very important part of the life of our congregation. We offer Nursery Care, Sunday School, and Youth Group during the service.
Children are also welcome in the sanctuary during the worship service. There are activity bags available in the narthex for busy hands. Just ask an usher for one on your way in!
Other activities for children include children's choir, summer camp, and family potlucks.
We acknowledge that we are gathered on the unceded traditional territory of the Algonquin Anishinabe First Nation. We pay respect to the elders past and present and honour all indigenous people’s reverence of this land throughout the ages. May we live in peace and friendship to sustain the earth and all its people.

Affirming
Bells Corners United Church welcomes people of all genders and sexual orientations. We also strive to welcome and include people of all ages, abilities and ethnicities.
Since the fall of 2023, the congregation has been actively engaged in a process of listening, learning, reflection and discernment as we consider making a formal and on-going commitment to being an Affirming Ministry. When we are ready to make an informed decision, a congregational vote will be taken.
For more information about Affirming Ministries, visit Affirm United.
We are available to offer Pastoral and Spiritual Care to all via email or telephone. If you have any concerns or wish to stay connected, please leave a message at 613-820-8103 or email office@bcuc.org. Someone from the church office will respond to you.
