The origins of our parish date back to 1861 when Bishop Tache built a small schoolhouse on the east side of the Red River and entrusted it to the Grey Nuns, who then had a small chapel built inside the school. Since then we've grown to become a diverse community that includes the parish, a daycare, nursery school and the largest Catholic co-educational school in the Archdiocese of Winnipeg, St. Maurice.
Since 1916 Harrow United Church has been a centre of community activity and a place of Christian worship, nurture and service. From its beginnings as the Sunshine Hall on Arbuthnot, offering a place for children and youth in the growing Crescentwood neighbourhood, to its present incarnation on the corner of Mulvey and Harrow, the congregation has always had an outward focus, looking for ways to make a difference in the community and the wider world. Nowadays, we have the opportunity to do that in a multitude of ways. You can participate in our virtual community or in our ''in-the-flesh'' community. Or both. Either way, we invite you to experience Christian community, to grow in compassion, and to discover how you can use your gifts to bless the world.

We love seeing them grow and mature as they discover how much God loves them. We love welcoming them back to camp, year after year.Founded in 1940, Manitoba Pioneer is part of a network of nine Inter-Varsity Camps across Canada operating under the names Circle Square and Pioneer. We are committed to seeing young people transformed by the love of God actively at work in their lives.

But the truth is, sport consumes so much of an athlete's life. Often, sport is a joy, as the rush of competition redeems seemingly endless hours of training and practice. And for the many Christian athletes who spend years in pursuit of their dreams, there is both opportunity and temptation: the chance to glorify God in sport, and the risk of it becoming...Running with Polar BearsView All Some people swim with dolphins
