The United Church's New Creed captures the church's mission: We are called to be the church, to celebrate God's presence, to live with respect in creation, to love and serve others, to seek justice and resist evil, and to proclaim Jesus. We respond to this calling in many ways. Our collective efforts beyond our local church and community are the Mission and Service work of our church. This work is carried out around the world by Mission and Service global partners, and across Canada by congregations like ours at First United Church Hanna.

The “Mission and Service Fund” of The United Church of Canada is transforming lives in Canada and around the world. Through generous donations of church members, it is the denomination's life blood. Some of the stories are shown on YouTube. Here is a 17 minutes video clip, and is worth watching:
