Unfortunately, many, many people have felt unwelcome or uncomfortable at other churches. As fellow Christians, we are sorry that happened to you. We strive to make this congregation as open, inclusive, and accepting as possible. Give us a chance (or two), and well do our best to make you feel welcome. Central St. Matthew UCC is an open and inclusive congregation. That means that we welcome into full worship life and membership persons of every race, language, age, gender, sexual orientation, physical and mental ability, and economic level. We recognize, celebrate, and give thanks for the many diverse gifts of God among us. We hold that discrimination is incompatible with the Gospel of Christ. We commit ourselves to work diligently to end all oppression and discrimination which afflict Gods people in our society. At Central St. Matthew UCC, we affirm that all relationships are founded upon the principles of Gods love and justice.
