Byron United Church Celebrates 165 Years 1859-2024 The legacy continues . . .

Since opening its doors in 1859, the generous congregation of Byron United Church provides money and items to support people living in poverty locally and around the world. In 2011, the Byron Cares Food Bank was created, with ongoing support from other Byron congregations. Ten years ago, Byron United sponsored six Syrian refugee families (29 people) to come to London, furnishing their apartments and setting them up with schools, doctors, dentists, banking, etc. In the last several years, the congregation has seen a large influx of new members from many different countries: Nigeria, Ghana, Sudan, Congo, India, Columbia, etc., making the church family very multicultural – a real blessing to everyone! While many churches across Canada have suffered declining attendance, Byron United Church continues to grow and thrive. Rev. Dr. Greg Brawn (2008 to present) and our leadership are striving to help everyone experience the transformative love, joy, and peace of God. With deep roots in the Byron community and faith in the Lord, this dedicated and faithful congregation provides much-needed opportunities for encountering practical faith and supportive fellowship in today’s fast-paced, secular society. The church’s 165th anniversary celebrations will take place throughout the month of September, with special Sunday
