Young people today live in a hectic, stressful and confusing world. Here at WUC we are committed to creating a relaxed environment of acceptance, mutual respect and Christian love as we enjoy exploring all that God's world has to offer.

The past year has brought us even closer together. We have formed friendships and memories that will last a lifetime. In addition to our Annual Halloween Food Drive, the youth hosted a large Halloweensleepover and spooky dance, went Christmas Carolling at Lakeridge Hospital, took over a Sunday Worship Service, competed in the Annual “Iron Chef” Challenge, cooked and served spaghetti dinners forour congregation, packed Christmas hampers, held a “Blessing of the Animals “Service, played sports and games, went camping, on a winter retreat, and so much more! And, as usual, Yahoo the camel and his friends helped us make Christmas come alive for our Christmas Eve productions.

Our senior group is looking forward to joining with the youth of Oshawa Presbytery in an amazing weekend of fun, high ropes, survival and faith at Fairhavens Retreat Centre in January 2011, and joining with other youth in the United Church and our community for manyevents in the coming year
