Every three years, when The United Church of Canada’s General Council meets, a new Moderator is chosen. The 45th General Council, currently taking place in person and online at the Calgary TELUS Convention Centre from August 7–11, just selected Rev. Dr. Kimberly Heath as the next Moderator, after three ballots.  

In sharing her hopes for the church, she says, "As Moderator I will help to build up the church by deepening faith in Jesus, strengthening what is small and encouraging life-giving connections."

The installation of Rev. Dr. Heath as the 45th Moderator will take place at Knox United Church, 506 4 St. SW, Calgary, Alberta, on Monday, August 11 at 7 pm MT. The service is open to anyone who would like to attend in person; it will also be available on our YouTube channel, with live interpretation in English and French.  

Five nominees stood for selection by the Commissioners of General Council 45 over the past two days.
