About Rowntree United Church

Rowntree Memorial United Church is a Christian place of worship located in the Carling Heights neighbourhood on Elliott Street in London. The church serves the local community by providing a space for worship and various outreach programs rooted in their mission to seek justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with God. The church offers regular Sunday services, which are held at 9:30 am except during the summer months when they share services with Dundas St. United. Residents can participate in community groups such as Knit Happens, a weekly gathering for conversation and crafting led by Rev. Wendy Noble. The church also engages in social activism and community support, including donating fresh vegetables to the ELUCO foodbank, hosting bottle drives for the 59th Beavers and Cubs, and providing information on topics such as climate change, truth and reconciliation, and migrant justice. The congregation emphasizes a commitment to deep spirituality, bold discipleship, and daring justice. They describe their facility as a "Green" building featuring updated windows and a boiler system, along with a high-quality audio/video system and organ. The building is fully accessible via an elevator located off the east side glass doors. For those using public transit, the Route 15, Huron Heights bus stops directly at the front door.
