An Open and Affirming Church  

North Prospect Union United Church of Christ is an Open and Affirming church.  It welcomes all who seek to know God. We believe that, although we are many members, we are one body in Christ. We have been called as well as challenged by God to respect and reconcile our differences.   We recognize and love each individual as a child of God. We welcome, respect, support, and lovingly encourage people of every race, ethnicity, creed, class, gender, sexual orientation, age, and physical and mental ability to join us on our journey of faith.

Mission Statement  

We believe that devotion to the ideals set forth in this mission statement, as we endeavor to be worthy of God's trust, will result in spiritual growth and fulfillment.  We join together as a diverse community of individuals to worship God; to love, enjoy, and care for one another; and to continue Christ's ministry in the world.  We seek to learn and discern God's will for us as revealed through scripture, the teachings of Jesus and his followers, and our own experience.  We strive to live our faith through the choices we make in our daily lives, and our work for social justice and spiritual outreach.  We commit ourselves to being a safe and welcoming haven, and to ministering to the longing for meaning in ourselves, our neighborhood, and the larger community.
