About Our Church
Rooted in faith, growing in community
A Fellowship Born from Faith
Weston Christian Fellowship Church began as something beautifully simple: a small group of believers in the Weston and Berwick area of Nova Scotia gathering in homes, around kitchen tables, to read the Bible and pray together. In the heartland of the Annapolis Valley — where farming families have tended apple orchards for generations and where neighbors have always known the value of community — the seeds of this fellowship were planted with care and deep conviction.
Over the decades, what began as informal home Bible study groups grew into a well-established, registered congregation. Families joined, children were raised in faith, and the church became a cornerstone of community life in Berwick. The fellowship has always been interdenominational in spirit — welcoming Christians from all walks of life and all theological traditions who share a common love of Jesus Christ and a desire to grow together in His Word.
Today, Weston Christian Fellowship Church is located at 3611 Brooklyn Street in Berwick, Nova Scotia — a welcoming building that reflects the warmth and openness of our congregation. The grounds are tended with care, the doors are always open to the public, and the spirit of hospitality that characterized those first home gatherings is still very much alive.
As a registered Canadian charity (CRA Registration No. 108203035RR0001), the church operates with full accountability and transparency. We are stewards of the trust our community places in us, and we are committed to fulfilling our mission to worship faithfully, serve generously, and welcome all who come seeking a spiritual home in the beautiful Annapolis Valley.
Our Core Values
These four values shape our decisions, our programs, and our relationships with one another
Faith-Centered Living
Scripture is not merely a text we study — it is the living Word that guides every dimension of our life together. We ground our programs, our leadership decisions, and our relationships in the teachings of Jesus Christ and the guiding presence of the Holy Spirit. Prayer is our first response, not our last resort.
Inclusive Fellowship
We believe that every person, regardless of background, age, ethnicity, life circumstance, or stage of faith, is made in the image of God and deserves to be welcomed with dignity and genuine warmth. Our fellowship is not a club for the perfect — it is a community for the journeying. All are welcome at our table.
Service to Others
We are called to love our neighbors as ourselves — not just in words, but in practical, tangible ways. From food sharing programs to wellness checks on isolated seniors, from environmental stewardship to youth mentoring, we seek to make a genuinely positive difference in the Berwick community and the broader Annapolis Valley every single week.
Spiritual Growth
We never stop growing. Whether through Sunday messages, mid-week Bible study, mentoring relationships, or seasonal retreats, we invest in the spiritual formation of every person in our community. We celebrate the questions as much as the answers, and we believe that growing in faith is a lifelong and deeply communal adventure.
Our Leadership
Weston Christian Fellowship Church is led by a dedicated pastoral team and a governing board of elders and deacons, all of whom are committed members of our congregation. Our leadership model is rooted in biblical principles of servant leadership — those who lead do so not for status or position, but out of a genuine calling to care for and equip the community.
The church operates in a congregational governance model, meaning that major decisions are made in consultation with the broader fellowship. This ensures that our community's voice is heard and that accountability flows in every direction. We believe that the church is stronger when all its members are engaged and invested in its direction.
As a registered Canadian charity, Weston Christian Fellowship Church is required — and proud — to submit annual financial and governance reports to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). Our registration number is 108203035RR0001. This transparency is not merely a legal obligation; it reflects our commitment to being fully accountable to both our congregation and the broader community we serve in the Annapolis Valley.
Making a Difference in the Annapolis Valley
The impact of Weston Christian Fellowship Church extends far beyond the walls of our building on Brooklyn Street. For more than five decades, our congregation has been quietly but consistently weaving itself into the fabric of Berwick's community life. We have watched children grow into adults, stood alongside families in their seasons of joy and grief, and served countless neighbors who needed practical help and genuine human connection.
In a rural area where isolation can be a very real challenge — especially for seniors, young families, and newcomers — the fellowship we provide has often been a lifeline. Our programs serve people regardless of whether they attend our church or hold any faith at all. We do not attach conditions to our service: we simply see a need and respond to it as best we can with the gifts and resources our community has been given.
From the hundreds of volunteer hours our members contribute each year, to the ongoing programs that support children's education, senior care, and environmental stewardship, we are committed to being a church that exists not just for itself, but for its entire community. The Annapolis Valley is our home, and its people our neighbors — and we consider it both a privilege and a calling to serve them well.
