We worship in the former North St. United Church building. Built in 1905, as North St. Methodist Church, on the site of two previous church buildings. But we are always striving to serve the community and world beyond our doors!

We enjoy a beautiful sanctuary with superb acoustics. Our sanctuary and other church facilities are well used by the community.

Lakeshore United is a church family of seekers and wise ones... some of us are new to the faith or we have been here our whole lives. We recognize that our journeys to faith and in Christian faith are different and varied, but we find unity in following Christ.
We strive to be a welcoming place. We also do our best to support and care for one another. Sunday worship strengthens us for the journey and binds us to one another. Our church school and adult education programs help us to grow and learn. And our outreach and justice work helps us to reach beyond ourselves to touch some of the brokenness of the world near and far.
We are not perfect, but we trust God's call to us and God's faithfulness to us on the journey which helps us keep walking in faith.
Wherever you are on your faith journey, we welcome you to join us!
