First Congregational United Church of Christ

We mean it when we say, “Everyone is Welcome here!”

No matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome at First Congregational United Church of Christ.

At First Church we believe that all people are created in God’s image and thus are loved and blessed equally. We believe that we should “Love the Lord our God with all our heart, with all our soul, with all our strength, and with all our mind; and Love our neighbor as ourselves.” (Luke 10:25-28 NIV)

​We welcome persons of every gender, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, ability, age, race, nationality, economic and social status, faith background, marital standing and family structure.

​At First Church, all people are encouraged to participate and share their talents and energy in worship and sacraments, leadership positions, lay ministry, learning, service, mission and fellowship.

​Come and visit us. You’re welcome at First Congregational United Church of Christ.
