Riverside United Church

As a congregation of The United Church of Canada we carried out programs of worship pastoral care Christian education and outreach. We worked with the Jamaican community in Ottawa to raise funds to help support a Basic School and a Nursing Program in Providence Jamaica. There is also a continuing involvement with the Syrian Refuge sponsorship program. The congregation worked with other community organizations to establish a Food Cupboard for the neighborhood. The Brookfield Community Food Cupboard was opened on May 1 2024. The Food Cupboard is open on Wednesday from 3:00 to 8:00 PM. The average number of people per week that received groceries was 105 with a high of 252 and a low of 36.
