Upcoming Events
Volunteers needed – Please consider volunteering for the following opportunities to help out at the church. There will be sign up sheets at the front table and even it you can commit to one Sunday occasionally or maybe once a month that would be very helpful.
Greeters – A friendly face at the door is needed to welcome people and provide help. It’s a good way to get to know people and check in with old friends.
Coffee Time Volunteers – Coffee will be served after the service but we need some volunteers to make the coffee ahead of the service and clean up afterward. Please consider helping out in this area even if it is only occasionally or for 1 Sunday a month.
Go to the Outreach page to see what is needed at the Airdrie food bank.
Did you know that for every $1 that the Airdrie Food Bank receives they can purchase $3 worth of food items? If you choose to support them in this way, please mark your donation clearly, and BUC will submit all monies received, to the Food Bank.
Christmas Cantata was held during the service on December 17th 2023.
