Youth Programs

Shaughnessy Heights United Church welcomes youth of all ages to participate in the social and spiritual events of our community. We seek to nurture your talents, form strong relationships, and support your spiritual growth.

Seeking Volunteer Hours?

Students looking for opportunities to accumulate volunteer hours for community service bursaries are invited to volunteer with the SHUC Choir, our Sunday morning Children’s Time, or in various roles during service including readings and candle lighting.

Are you enthusiastic about making learning fun? Do you want to offer kids a summer experience they’ll never forget? Join the team at Camp Spirit! Paid and volunteer positions are open for teens and young adults who want to work with children and build their leadership skills.

High School Choral Scholar program

The SHUC Choir invites teenage choristers to join us in singing a variety of fun and challenging repertoire through our new High School Choral Scholar program. This program gives high school choristers the opportunity to gain paid experience in musical leadership with a choir composed of dedicated professionals and community members.

Several people stand between pews in a church during a service.

You are welcome

Shaughnessy Heights United Church is an affirming and welcoming community that offers a place for people of all walks of life and at all stages in their faith journey. Whether you’ve been going to church for years, haven’t been in ages, or have never set foot in a church before — from long time believers to the merely curious seekers — we have a place for you.

As an affirming congregation, we are honoured to provide a safe and holy space for members of the LGBTQIA+ community.
