FirstUCC Home

We began in 1841 as a Cottage Church of German Speaking Evangelical
Christians. Later on we united with the Reformed Church in order to expand
our witness to God's Love. Today we celebrate our continued mission to
fulfill Christ's prayer "that they may all be one." We are very proud to have
given birth to many other churches within three United Church of Christ
Conferences. You are welcome to join with other christians in learning:
Jesus Christ and his teachings, worship and bible study, service to others-
here and worldwide, a fellowship which binds people together in a covenant
circle of care and concern. If you too, can make these affirmations with us,
we invite you to join us and see why we say: "We are proud to be UCC!"
You need not wear fancy clothes, nor have a great income. Neither do you need to be concerned that others will look down on you because of your education level, color of your skin, marital status, etc. For at First United Church of Christ, all persons who believe in Jesus Christ are welcomed. As members of United Church of Christ, we highly value unity and diversity. Unity in Christ and diversity of thought and opinion. These two crucial ingredients are what makes the U.C.C. a place where different people of many backgrounds feel at home.
If you are searching for a church home, we'd like you to know that there is a special place just for you in our church family. You are welcome here. Even before you decide to place your membership with us, we welcome you, as a brother or a sister in Christ, to share with us as we partake for Holy Communion. For we believe that Christ is the one who invites the faithful to the table and we have no right to prevent anyone from receiving the emblem of God's Grace and Love poured out for all.
We welcome as well, your children. Our worship includes a story time led by the pastor. And there are many opportunities for young ones to learn about God's love and care within a safe and healthy enviroment.
