The United Church of Canada, like the rest of the country, is mourning the lives lost during the shooting in Nova Scotia this past weekend. Yesterday, the church asked people across the country to light a candle in the evening to remember the victims and families of those killed. It is comforting to see how many churches and individuals responded to the call.

Please visit the United Church website for a message from the Moderator.
