God is still speaking...

First Congregational United Church of Christ... a place wehre God IS still speaking...living...breathing...being. A place where all are welcomed and received. A place where you can look within and be in joy and sing praises with a heavenly choir. A place to be renewed, strengthened and healed, led by a man of God who walks his talk and lives with compassion and empathy. Come, draw near to our Maker and hear God's voice for you today.

Rev Maupin

His comments today are an example of his irresponsible behavior. He is NOT a man of God , as he claims.

Open and Affirming

>> That's the phrase that is used in many of the UCC churches. Never has that phrase been as fully embraced as here. The congregation ranges from old married couples (like me) to young gay men and women with tattos. All are TRULY welcomed.
