Every Sunday, we encourage children of all ages to join the minister in the center of the circle for "Conversation time on the Quilt". Afterwards, children three years and older can go to Sunday School.

Sunday School

We use the Workshop Rotation Model which allows children to explore a story for a few weeks in order to be immersed in a particular story more fully. We choose a theme or idea that pertains to the story and have an activity to show the children what it means (like "love" or "overcoming obstacles").

Sunday School returns on January 11, 2015.

Once a month, this group of young gamilies meet at the church so the parents can chat, socialize and get to know each other while their children play with each other.

Ministry Staff

Kathy Platt

Kathy Platt serves as Sunset United Church's ministry staff and writes a regular blog for the church's website. She also wrote a blog during her sabbatical in Africa.

Kathy says, "I was commissioned to diaconal ministry in the United Church of Canada in 2001. I have worked in several communities in Manitoba (Minnedosa, McCreary, Kelwood and Alonsa), and came to Sunset United in Regina in July of 2006.

One of the things that drew me to this community was the opportunity to worship “in the round” – on a Sunday morning the chairs are set up in a circle so that we can clearly see who it is we are worshiping with. I stand in the centre of the circle and speak to the gathered community rather than being somehow elevated above the community as I share whatever is on my heart this day.

We are an Affirming Ministry of the United Church of Canada, meaning that we are living into our understanding of what it means to be welcoming of all - to live out the song that we sing often: "come just as you are - and hear the Spirit call". What drew me into ministry was my commitment to social justice and my call to pastoral ministry - reaching out my hand wherever I can so that we can join together as companions on this journey.

I am invigorated by exploring a variety of ways to be "church" together - whether it is in the circle on a Sunday morning, or on a hike in the mountains, or sitting by someone's hospital bed, or feasting together around a table. I look forward to discovering more about the community that God is calling us to be!"
