Do you believe in advocating for justice and peace? Do you value a world where everyone is welcome, wanted, and accepted? Do you see the value in learning to be more compassionate, peaceful, and whole? Do you believe spirituality is an important part of being human? Do you want to make the world a better place? 

We do too. That’s what we’re all about as a church.

If you want to support our work in doing all that, and so much more, we invite you to give to RDLUC. Imagine the difference we could make together!

Remember, whatever and however you give, it matters and makes a difference that counts.

food pantry

Due to a considerable increase in cost of living and food prices, there is a significant demand in folks accessing Food Pantry’s across the city. In addition, there is a lack of free food resources in the deep south of Calgary.

You can help us keep out food pantry stocked so we can continue to work with Fish Creek United Church, the Calgary Food Bank and The Veterans Food Bank, and anyone who comes to the church in need of food or assistance.

Add a few items to your grocery list and bring them into the church during office hours Mon-Thurs (9 am - 3 pm) or on Sunday mornings.  Let's get the shelves full so everyone has enough.

Please check the list below of items most in need.

canned meat sugar

canned fruit juice

white rice toilet paper

cooking oil laundry supplies
