If you understand that faith is a matter of mind as well as heart, and that taking the Bible seriously means it cannot always be taken literally,

If you know that God's love embraces all persons equally, no matter their gender, race, or sexual identity,

If you believe that Jesus calls us to be nothing less than global citizens, that the social expression of love is justice, and that spiritual concerns are inseparable from commitment to the natural world,

If you've wished for a more open and embracing community of faith to nurture your spirit and raise your children, and haven't yet found a like minded place of belonging,

Then we invite you to explore the many ways that God is still speaking. Welcome to First Congregational United Church of Christ in Manhattan.
