What folks have to say about Northwest
Kind Words & Testimonials
When I walked through the door 12 years ago, at a very low point in my life I felt like I was given a big hug. Since joining this Church I have made so many wonderful friends, and each week as I listen to the message I think that Rev, Phil is speaking just to me, however I have learned that many other people feel this way as well. By getting involved in many events and committees, I feel like I truly belong to this wonderful Church family.

Our church embraces diversity and practices inclusion. I love that each person is celebrated for being their unique, beautiful selves.

I moved to Barrie three years ago, and I had NWBUC picked as my church even before I found a place to live. I did this because I know two people who belong to NW. That’s all it took. I keep coming back because I have found a wonderful, loving church community and a great minister.
