IUCC Mission

​

Mission:
IUCC is a faith community called by God to nourish others by sharing gifts of love, humor, and compassion with all of God’s people.

Vision:
As we travel together on our journey of faith, we seek to be a welcoming congregation to ALL.   We reach out to those in need in our church family, the community, and the world as we strive to nourish the body and soul through our worship, ministries, and prayers.  We seek to serve with love and justice as revealed in the person of Jesus Christ and experienced in the Holy Spirit.

 

 

United Church of Christ Statement of Faith
We believe in you, O God, Eternal Spirit, God of our Savior Jesus Christ and our God, and to your deeds we testify:
You call the worlds into being, create persons in your own image,and set before each one the ways of life and death.
You seek in holy love to save all people from aimlessness and sin.
You judge people and nations by your righteous will declared through prophets and apostles.
In Jesus Christ, the man of Nazareth, our crucified and risen Savior, you have come to us and shared our common lot, conquering sin and death and reconciling the world to yourself.
You bestow upon us your Holy Spirit, creating and renewing the church of Jesus Christ, binding in covenant faithful people of all ages, tongues, and races.
You call us into your church to accept the cost and joy of discipleship, to be your servants in the service of others, to proclaim the gospel to all the world and resist the powers of evil,to share in Christ's baptism and eat at his table, to join him in his passion and victory.
You promise to all who trust you forgiveness of sins and fullness of grace, courage in the struggle for justice and peace, your presence in trial and rejoicing, and eternal life in your realm which has no end.
Blessing and honor, glory and power be unto you.

Amen.
