On Sunday, January 29, 2012, Kelly Ebbett and Karen Watson reported to the congregation on their status and progress as Wilmot's Parish Nurse Ministry. Their update on activities and studies as they begin their practica is now available on the Parish Nurse Ministry page on our web site.

Further updates will be added as they become available.

Wilmot United Church, located in the centre of downtown Fredericton at the corner of King and Carleton, is host to many activities beyond Sunday services. Despite the breadth and depth of our mission, the congregation recognizes that our large church building is not being utilized to its full potential. We wish to make more effective use of these spaces so that the building itself can help fulfil our mission and vision.

We seek partners who have a vision that is complementary to our own and who could benefit from the use of space within the walls of our church. As such, we invite Expressions of Interest from anyone with a compelling idea of how to better use the church building in furtherance of our vision: “Wilmot United Church is an open and welcoming presence in downtown Fredericton, putting our Christian faith into action to be a light in God's world.”

The Wilmot Quilters tell the story about how this project came to be in THE WILMOT QUILTING PROJECT 2011

The United Church of Canada has never shied away from confronting challenging issues and, in that light, established its first policy on dealing with sexual abuse in 1993.

After 10 years, a thorough review of the policy was undertaken to identify whether the policy reflected current Canadian legal requirements and employment standards. Not surprisingly, since societal and employment standards had evolved significantly in the interim, the policy needed to be updated, and a new policy was published in 2007. After further review, the policy was updated and the processes clarified for the April 2011 edition.

The updated policy is effective April 1, 2011.
