- Nurture effective leadership.
- Grow faithful public witness as United Church people.
We Affirm!
We are an Affirming Regional Council - we celebrated our confirmed status at our June 2022 General Meeting with an amazing street party, in Prince George! Read our region's Affirming Ministry Regional Council Statement here, and learn more about Affirming Communities of Faith in the region too.

A key period of women’s work, struggle, and leadership in the United Church, coincided with the popularization of feminism in the wider culture, and is now part of history. There was a coordinated effort across The UCC identify and preserve the personal papers and stories of some of the women who were part the profound change. The PMRC Archives undertook 30 interviews between 2011 and 2022.
