Southminster United Church, Lethbridge

The recorded services can be viewed on Facebook anytime. Office is♿ Accessible from 11th Street Southminster United Church is a community of faith with deep roots in downtown Lethbridge. Ours is a church with a rich, progressive, and continuing history of welcoming all in the name of Jesus Christ. We feel honoured to house so many community organizations and events in our grand sandstone building

on the corner of 4th Avenue and 11th Street South, but Southminster is so much more than the building that shelters us from the strong southern Alberta winds. We are a place of unconditional acceptance, appreciation, respect, and the sharing of God’s light and love. Southminster is its people, and it is in them that we find our spiritual home. The United Church of Canada was created from a union of several Christian denominations in 1925, who came together in order to serve a specifically Canadian context. Throughout its history it has embraced people of all backgrounds and orientations. It was the first denomination in North America to ordain women to the ministry in 1936, as well as the first to ordain LGBTQ2IA+ persons to ministry in 1988. Today, we are committed to becoming an inter-cultural and anti-racist Church. Please know that whoever you are, and wherever you are in your faith journey, there is a place for you here. As we join together at Southminster as a family of faith, we seek connection to God, the source of all life. Drawing upon the ancient wisdom we find in our sacred text, the Bible, we look to Jesus as our teacher and model for living. Worshipping God who is expressed as Creator, Christ, and Spirit, we receive forgiveness and love. As a community of faith we enjoy one another’s company and seldom turn down an opportunity to work, play, and eat together. We extend to you an invitation to join us here, where with God’s help – and yours – we can continue to live out our motto: “Open hearts, open minds, open doors.”

This month’s q***r film night will be on the 22nd, rather than on the 15th.

The film is 1946, a documentary that follows the story of researchers who trace the origins of the anti-gay movement among Christians to a mistranslation of the Bible in 1946.

We’re partnering with McKillop United Church, Southminster United Church, Lethbridge, and Lethbridge Public Library in putting on this event.

Given how the weaponization of Christian scripture has hurt so many of us, hopefully this is a film we can see a lot of people at.
