The following information is collected from the UCC website.
Welcome to the United Church of Christ—a community of faith that seeks to respond to the Gospel of Jesus Christ in word and deed. The UCC was founded in 1957 as the union of several different Christian traditions: from the beginning of our history, we were a church that affirmed the ideal that Christians did not always have to agree to live together in communion. Our motto—"that they may all be one"—is Jesus' prayer for the unity of the church. The UCC is one of the most diverse Christian churches in the United States.
The United Church of Christ embraces a theological heritage that affirms the Bible as the authoritative witness to the Word of God, the creeds of the ecumenical councils, and the confessions of the Reformation. The UCC has roots in the "covenantal" tradition—meaning there is no centralized authority or hierarchy that can impose any doctrine or form of worship on its members. Christ alone is Head of the church. We seek a balance between freedom of conscience and accountability to the apostolic faith. The UCC therefore receives the historic creeds and confessions of our ancestors as testimonies, but not tests of the faith.
The United Church of Christ is committed to be:
 | Attentive to the Word |
| Inclusive of all people |
| Responsive to God's call |
| Supportive of one another. |
As an ATTENTIVE church, we are committed to listen for God's Word in Holy Scripture, in our rich heritage, in faithful witness, and in the fresh winds of the Holy Spirit so that we might discover God's way for us.
As an INCLUSIVE church, we are committed to be a church for all people and, in Christ, to celebrate, affirm and embrace the rich diversity of God's good creation.
As a RESPONSIVE church, we are committed to be a church of justice and mercy and peace so that lives may be renewed, spirits revived, and worlds transformed.
As a SUPPORTIVE church, we are committed to strengthen Christ's Church through renewed resolve and mutual support in our common ministries.
