Who We Are
We recognize our calling, both as individuals and as the church, to live in the world:
Ministering to the needs of the world.
Contributing to the welfare of all.
Being enriched by those aspects of culture
that help to make human life more human.
Working through institutions and supporting laws that reflect
God's just and loving purposes for the world.
Seeking justice and liberation for all.
This is the challenge of the United Church of Christ.

We welcome to our congregation all who seek to understand and follow a Christian way of life and to become a part of our congregation's life.
