First Church Team
Rev. Paul Browning is our Congregational Minister.
Paul grew up in Halifax and attended a variety of judgmental churches who believed their way was the only way to God and whose rules were hurtful. Having experienced the judgement, guilt, anger and irrelevance of these churches, Paul was introduced to the United Church. He had never known so many fine, community minded people before. Add to that, the United Church is the only church who respects diversity and freedom of thought enough to put love before doctrinal commitments. So, Paul signed up.
Paul is excited about being a part of the rich history and ministry of First United Church. If you are looking for a spiritual home where you can belong and be respected for the amazing person you have been created to be, give Paul a call. You will be treated as a respected partner and not a project.
Paul is also proud to minister at Central United Church: https://www.centraluc.ca/
