Gather • Grow • Go

"So here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life – your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life – and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don’t become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You’ll be changed from the inside out." – Romans 12:1-2

 

At Westmount, we believe that our faith in our triune God is three-fold: we are called to gather, grow, and go. Through developing these aspects of our faith with our focus fixed on God, we will be changed from the inside out and we will make a difference in transforming the world.

 

We are a family-focused congregation where all generations gather together to seek, teach, and reach as the body of Christ. We offer ministries for adults and seniors. We also pride ourselves on being an inclusive, open, and welcoming community for all people. Westmount strives to be a transforming faith community that is both a place of refuge and outreach, a place where people can come to be comforted, fed and challenged, as well as a place that reaches out to those in need in our surrounding community and around the world.
