Welcome to Westdale!
As the congregation of Westdale United
Church approaches its 30th anniversary in its present
location, there continues to be a vibrance that was obviously
evident when it all began with such devoted members.
Westdale
was located in the growth area of "suburban" West
Peterborough, and as such has evolved with a sense of mission
somewhat different than others and grew to serve the mid-week
(see groups) and Sunday service needs of residents in the
area.
There is a welcoming and inviting atmosphere at Westdale
for both the young and the young-at-heart and our congregation
continues to be robust and sustains a healthy level of
attendance. Sunday services often include special musical
presentations and multi-media to enhance the worship
experience.
A visitor, we would hope, can find both a warm
welcome, yet stimulating worship experience, supplemented by
an opportunity to develop new friendships and become part of a
number of supportive activities. Westdale has an amazing track
record of leadership and dedicated volunteers. Members have
come to believe in their church and in their faith providing
them with that all important anchor in their lives which helps
them live their lives with hope and joy each day. Come in and
join the journey of spiritual growth!
