WHO WE ARE
There are over 60 Missouri Mid-South Conference
United Church of Christ congregations in the greater St. Louis Metro
area. You can find UCC churches in the urban, suburban, small town and
even rural settings within this 30 mile radius. Most congregations
offer traditional worship services each Sunday, and several have added
a contemporary service that may include drama and different types of
music such as praise, jazz, and rock. There is also a great range of
history among the churches with some congregations proclaiming over
100 years of ministry and others just getting started.
Even with these many differences, the UCC churches in the St. Louis
Association are joined in reaching out to people in need. Some of the
UCC missions supported by local churches include Deaconess Foundation,
Emmaus Homes, Evangelical Children’s Home, Good Samaritan Home,
Lydia’s House, and Neighborhood Houses. Many UCC folk have
participated in ecumenical efforts such as Room At the Inn and Habitat
for Humanity. Come join us for love, laughter and Christian Ministry.
