Warren United Church is a community church open to residents of Warren and surrounding area.

Reverend Mary Best has renewed her contract with Warren, Meadow Lea and Balmoral United Churches, providing weekly services and pastoral care. For those who wish to join worship but are unable to attend in person, we provide worship services by Zoom, so you can join from the comfort of home.

The new Collaborative Approach with the three churches, Warren, Meadow Lea and Balmoral allows each church to keep their own independence while supporting each other. It is a sign of the future as congregations age and continue to decline.

Even with the financial support of the current congregation, fundraising is a major factor in our operating budget.

This past year we held several successful fundraisers. Once again, our Hot Dog and Pie sale during the Community Garage sale was a huge success. We again sold out of pies before noon, and we sold out of hot dogs and smokies. Once again, we held a Steak Night in June which again successful and we held a Roast Beef dinner in September which was well received, and plans are being made for one in the spring. The church catered to two funerals which added to our fundraising totals.

Davidson Hall is available to rent for small gatherings or meetings. You can call the church office to inquire about bookings 322-5752.

Even with our successful fundraising, our operating costs still exceed monthly income. Our expenses average about $3500.00/month and we have a guaranteed income of $1100.00. This shortfall means that we continually dip into dwindling savings to meet expenses.

Warren United Church is asking for your financial support. All donations over $20 will receive a tax receipt. Pre-Authorized Remittances (PAR) is available for monthly or yearly donations, please contact Debbie Buchanan for details.

Donations may be made by cheque to Warren United Church Box 324 Warren, Manitoba R0C 3E0 or by E-transfer to   warren.united.church96@gmail.com 

Please contact either Doris or Debbie with any questions.
