Our Vision:
“By 2028, UBC will be a thriving family of faith who learn to love, follow, serve, share, and praise Jesus.”
Love Jesus: In union with Christ through the power of Spirit to the glory of the Father we will be a light on a hill, a beacon of hope, where all who are weary, wounded, and lost will be welcomed home, and invited to encounter our Risen Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. With our efforts wholly dependent on God, we will celebrate 100 baptisms.
Follow Jesus: Gathering together in wholehearted worship we will become a fellowship of 500 devoted disciples as we align our lives in service to God’s glory. Strangers will be welcomed as friends and friends will be embraced as family.
Serve Jesus: We will walk in the footsteps of Jesus Christ, embracing accountability through community and growth through participation. 60% of our congregation will be involved in Life Groups — groups that are committed to living life together. We will rejoice together, laugh together and mourn together. And together, we will grow in our faith, abilities and gifts through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.
Share Jesus: And as we are equipped, we will go. We will give the best of our time, abilities and treasures in the unrelenting pursuit of the Great Commission in Uxbridge and beyond. 80% of our Life Groups will be active in mission, embodying Christ’s compassion and vocalising His Gospel.
Praise Jesus: In everything we will lift high the name of Jesus, through the uncompromising preaching of God’s word, in faithful obedience, fervent prayer, and God-exalting worship. We will be known by our love for God and for one another, and, as we love, the streets of Uxbridge will overflow with living water.
We are affiliated with the Canadian Baptists of Ontario and Quebec and consider ourselves to be Evangelical.
Our Sunday service begins at 10am and runs until about 11:15am. The first Sunday of the month is a Communion service and it runs a little longer.
We invite you to come as you are comfortable. For some, that will be “business”; for some, that will be “business casual”; and for some, that will be “casual”.
Musically, we blend traditional music (hymns) with contemporary music.
Pre-covid, we averaged 350 including children and youth.
Under covid, we can welcome 30% of our physical space while ensuring physical distancing between households/bubbles.
We have a multi-purpose facility including a main Sanctuary, Gymnasium, Children/Youth Ministry Classrooms, Library, Nursery, Prayer Room, and a multi-purpose room.
