Here is the United Church of Christ's Vision Plan:
Core Purpose:
Drawn together by the Holy Spirit, we are a distinct and diverse community of Christians that come together as one church, joining faith and action. In covenant with the church in all of its settings, we serve God in the co-creation of a just and sustainable world as made manifest in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Core Values:
Continuing Testament:
Our faith is 2000 years old. Our thinking is not. God is still speaking.
Extravagant Welcome:
No matter who you are, or where you are on life's journey, you're welcome here.
Changing Lives:
Never place a period where God has placed a comma
Bold, Inspirational Goals:
1. Bold, Public Voice
The UCC is a bold, widely-known and respected public voice of Christianity in service of God's every-unfolding mission.
2. Welcoming, Reachable Congregations
There is a welcoming UCC community of faith that is accessible to all - no matter who they are or where they are on life's journey.
3. Engaged Discipleship
Every UCC person is well-equipped to be growing in faith, biblically-literate, theologically conversant, and active in the national and global mission of the church.
4. Excellent, Diverse Leaders
The UCC has a wealth of prepared, excellent leaders that reflect the diversity of God's beloved community.
