85th Anniversary of the United Church of Canada

*The United Church of Canada was formed on June 10th, 1925 (which makes us 85 years old in 2010). You may want to celebrate the history of your particular church congregation by playing the Church History Scavenger Hunt link . You will have to adapt the items to find to suit your church context but it gives you a basic idea.*please keep in mind that this article comes from a site that does not necessarily reflect the theology of the United Church of Canada. You may have to adapt other articles as need should you choose to use them.

~It could also be fun to compare the history of your congregation to the historical timeline of the United Church that can be found here United Church timeline link . If you don’t know significant dates within your own congregation get your youth to interview some of the spiritual elders in your congregation to see what collective wisdom they might have.

~The United Church also has it’s own You Tube channel. You can link to it here at United Church You Tube channel link . If your youth haven’t seen it yet you might want to play the video “E-Z Answer Squirrel” that is found under the Wonder Café link on the right side of the screen.
