A Welcoming Community of Faith
Steinbach United Church accepts, respects, values and includes all people. We celebrate the wisdom of our elders, as well as the energy and enthusiasm of our youth. It does not matter who you are, where you have come from, who you love or where you are on your faith journey. You are welcome here. You belong.
We acknowledge the land that we gather on is Treaty 1 territory, the traditional lands of the Anishinaabe, Cree, Dakota and Red River Metis.
Niverville and Steinbach United Churches worship together!
With a sense of renewed energy, the faith communities of Niverville United Church (NUC) and Steinbach United Church (SUC) joined in the spirit of collaborative ministry, creating United in Spirit Collaborative Ministry in 2022! With each community maintaining its own autonomy and focus, a growing trust and sense of purpose in how we will live out our calling together has developed. We continue to work together in some areas of ministry and on our own in others. A strong, deep relationship has developed, creating a partnership, where we listen and learn from each other.
Collaborative ministry is driven by our shared vision. It evolves from the grassroots as we work together and grow into our unique style of ministry. We share many common values and are focusing on spiritual growth/worship; pastoral care/fellowship; outreach/justice.
SUC and NUC are blessed with strong lay leadership to handle many duties within our communities of faith, allowing the clergy person to focus on other areas of ministry. We are very open to change and the exploration of new creative possibilities, and strive to be inclusive, compassionate, and spiritual in all that we do.
Be sure to join us for worship on Sundays at 10:15 a.m. in-person or via live-stream. Sunday school (ages 3-12) and Youth programs (grades 7-12) are offered during the service. Refreshments are available before and after the service for a time of fellowship.

Steinbach United is an
Affirming Ministry!
Steinbach United Church is a community of faith that actively supports justice and inclusion. Together we listened, studied, shared stories, faced challenges and updated policies on our journey to become affirming. On March 14th, 2021 we celebrated our official status as an Affirming Ministry within the United Church of Canada! Watch the special service video of our celebration on our Worship page.
Our journey continues as we actively live out our commitment to all people.
