SPRING MEETING 2025

We are One: Deepening Our Connections

An Invitation from WOWRC President, Jennifer Irving

I’m looking forward to the chance to deepen our connections with one another at the WOWRC Spring Meeting at the UNIFOR centre in Port Elgin. Whether you are attending online or in person there will be an opportunity to celebrate who we are together. We will honour the 100th Anniversary of the United Church of Canada and give thanks for the depth and breadth of all our ministries.

I hope to see you there,

President Jennifer Irving
Western Ontario Waterways Regional Council
