Mill Woods United Church

Mill Woods United Church We are a spiritual community where you can explore your purpose and place. Join us online or in person at 10:30am on Sundays!

Our inclusive, welcoming and affirming Christian church is located in Southeast Edmonton in the community of Greenview. Mill Woods United Church was established as a congregation in 1976 as the Mill Woods suburban area was being developed. The congregation divided as First Mill Woods and Southwoods United Church, coming back together as one congregation in the worship building opened in May 1993.

We established ourselves as an affirming congregation in June 2006. As a community of the Christian faith, striving to answer Jesus' call to love all of our neighbors as ourselves, we declare our love for all persons, regardless of age, gender, race, sexual orientation, differing abilities, ethnic background or economic circumstance and welcome them into full participation in every aspect of congregational life. As we continue our discovery of what it means to be an inclusive community, we recognize the importance of hearing each other's stories and respecting each other's gifts. We celebrate diversity even as it challenges us to walk with Christ down roads we have not yet explored.

This Sunday -

Borstad Family Bells will be playing 2 pieces on Sunday, June 7th, with some members of the Borstad family plus friend Amy (who also plays in The Bells of Mill Woods).

One of the pieces is a familiar hymn, BEACH SPRING which is found in our hymn book, Voices United, having four different hymns from 4 different lyricists.
The hymn most often sung to Beach Spring, at Mill Woods United Church is "Come and Find the Quiet Centre”, with lyrics by Shirley Erena Murray. However, this music has its roots back to 1844, from The Sacred Harp, originally from Beach Spring Baptist Church USA. This melody came from the deep South, arranged by an American from Maryland, to New Zealand (Murray’s homeland), to Canada, yet this bell piece has a bit of a Celtic twist, often associated with harps. Hope you enjoy this version that draws on many musical styles and places.

The Theme from ‘The Moldau” is a Bohemian folk melody called Vltava (My Homeland), by Bedrich Smetana. The Moldau is a wide river flowing from the forests of Bohemia through to Prague. It was written at a time of occupation of the Czech people and also a time when Smetana was personally beset with deafness. The rich harmonies are well suited to bells and Martha Thompson has made a beautiful, gently flowing piece. Picture your favourite river or water and enjoy this timeless piece.

Come and enjoy with us! Service starts at 10:30 ❤️
