St Paul’s sponsors the United Church Campus Ministry at the University of Alberta.
As the title indicates, one of the important goals of this ministry is to be with students, staff and faculty as they wrestle with the questions of faith in living. Rather than getting a “face lift”, we recommend a “faith lift” to improve your life, and not make you look younger but give you the energy for meeting the challenges and embracing the beauty of Life!
Activities and Initiatives
Faith Lift provides small group programs for students, staff and faculty.
Cell groups provide, study, prayer, support and action.

"Dinner Out" provides a hearty home cooked meal for starving students.
"Just Java" is promoting justice through encouraging the sale of Fair Trade Coffee on campus.
In addition, Chaplain Denise Davis Taylor is available to students, staff and faculty to talk with confidentially and to act as a resource for people exploring issues of faith and spirituality, or simply wanting to connect with the broader church community in Edmonton.
