OUR CHURCH
A Church of Extravagant Welcome
No matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey, you’re welcome here — to explore your faith, to meet new people, and to strengthen your personal relationship with God.
Changing Lives One at a Time
Through countless opportunities, people like you can learn and grow as members of a vital faith community that proclaims its faith in a Still speaking God.
Live your faith, Love your community, and Heal the world
Since 1957, the United Church of Christ has been the church of firsts, weaving God’s message of hope and extravagant welcome with action for justice and peace. Together, we live out our faith in ways that effect change in our communities.
God is still speaking,
Our faith is 2,000 years old, but our thinking is not. God is still speaking to us, so are you listening?
Drawn together by the Holy Spirit, we are a distinct and diverse community of Christians that come together as one church, joining faith and action. In covenant with the church in all of its settings, we serve God in the co-creation of a just and sustainable world as made manifest in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
John 17:21
