Our Beliefs
Kowloon Union Church is an independent congregation, striving to live and work within the faith and unity of the one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. We are grateful to belong to the Hong Kong Christian Council, and we cherish our links with other ecumenical organizations like the Christian Conference of Asia and the World Council of Churches.
We share the theology and tradition of Protestant faith. Although we do not subscribe to a particular set of confession or creed, our Mission Statement reflects what we believe, for the Bible reminds us that faith without action is dead (James 2:17). KUC also issues statements concerning different social and faith issues too. Click below to learn more.
Our History
A Brief History of Kowloon Union Church
Kowloon Union Church was founded in 1924 by the London Missionary Society aiming that "the Ordinances of Christianity would be administered without distinction of Denominations". With the financial support from Sir Paul Chater, the foundation stone of the church building was laid on 27 May 1930. Kowloon Union Church is declared a monument for permanent protection in 2017.
