Welcome.
Belonging at UCC means receiving Christ's welcome—and ours—regardless of where you are along your faith journey.
YOU MIGHT HAVE THESE QUESTIONS
What’s your service like?
Our worship follows a similar rhythm from week to week and generally includes a time of singing, prayer, and teaching/preaching. We share in the Lord’s Supper every week, welcoming anyone who would hear Jesus’ invitation and choose to respond. It is our belief that Jesus welcomes everyone who wants to share in His feast.
What time should I arrive?
Worship begins Sundays at 9.45am. Bring your favorite mug from home, come a little early, and enjoy a cup of Pneuma coffee before service!
Where’s your building? Where can I park?
We worship at 245 W. McMillan Street across from Hughes High School. You’re welcome to park behind Hughes in the surface lot. Street parking is often an option, (free on Sundays), and there are two accessible parking spaces in front of our building as well.
Are kids welcome?
Absolutely! We provide childcare (ages 2 and under) and faith formation for children on the lower-level of the building. Children aged 3–12 are invited into our Montessori-based environment where they experience God and learn about Jesus in developmentally-appropriate ways. If you prefer to keep children with you in service, we have some quiet activities available for use upstairs as well.
Even teens?
Of course! We invite teens to join their parents (or friends) for worship in the sanctuary, then stay for youth group (YUCC) from 11.30am–12.30pm upstairs. This small-group time is guided by adult leaders and is designed to help teens grow in their relationship with Christ. Outside our time together on Sunday mornings, teens are invited to participate in a once-a-month youth group on Sunday evenings from 6.00–8.00pm.
What should I wear?
Most people dress casually. Wear whatever you feel most comfortable in.
How can I receive prayer?
On the final Sunday of each month our prayer team is available during/after communion for those who need prayer. We invite you to reach out for prayer throughout the week too. Use the form on the CONNECT page and one of our pastors or a member of our prayer team will follow-up with you promptly.
At UCC, we extend Christ’s invitation to seek, explore, ask questions, follow, lead, take risks, and participate in life as His body.
Church is more than a Sunday morning gathering.
It's about joining God's unfolding story, and discovering the ways God invites all of us to participate in His creative, redemptive work in the world.
You may wish to explore what it means to follow Christ for the first time. Or, perhaps you require a place for rest and healing. Maybe you’re searching for practical ways to express your love for Christ.
Whatever your reason, we’re glad you’re here. Everyone who calls UCC home brings purpose, gifts, and passions that enrich the perspective of the whole body, and help grow our fruitfulness in sharing Christ’s transforming love across the city.
