The United Church of Christ is a Protestant denomination that believes in a Still Speaking God. Calvary UCC is an Open & Affirming Congregation, which means that we offer welcome to all who seek Christ. No matter where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome here. Our congregation honors the past, lives in the present, and works tirelessly to be a Church Where Christ is Lived. Regardless of your economic status, family situation, or sexual orientation, you can find a place in this family of God. We believe in the deity of Jesus, the love of God, and the ever transforming power of the Holy Spirit. We believe that the Bible is the inspired Word of God – we take Scripture seriously, but not literally. And while our faith is over 2000 years old, our thinking is not. Come and join us on the journey – Calvary, a church for the 21st century.
