  • ABOUT YOU:

    The United Church of Canada is strengthened by involving a diversity of voices in its leadership. As we strive to become an intercultural and diverse church, it is helpful if we know some of the ways that members identify. Please note that answering some of these questions is voluntary. Required questions are marked with an * so you can choose for yourself.

    Please indicate if there are any other identities you hold that might diversify and strengthen the church’s leadership.

    Each of us comes from and is shaped by a wide range of contexts and identities, including our racial and ethnic background, geographic location, gender identity, sexual orientation, disabilities and abilities, vocation and economic reality. Everyone is encouraged to reflect on how these gifts contribute to the perspectives and wisdom they bring to the role.
