Chili Cook Off & Open Mic February 11, 2012 It’s
time once again for the Chili-Cook Off. Have you always wanted to
perform at Church but only know rowdy blues songs? Well, now’s your
chance. This year we will be hosting a UCC all-church open mic during
the chili cook-off. Come share your talent, solo or in a group, with
the chili eaters (and wine and beer drinkers). Best of all, you don’t
have to do church music! New Members Received February 12, 2012 at 9:30 Service An orientation evening will be held on Monday, February 6 at 7:30pm in the Parlor.
Childcare is available during the orientation. Please contact the
office if you have questions about membership and if you need childcare
for the orientation. 175th Anniversary March 4, 2012 We
are looking for pictures of you and any family wedding and/or baptism
that has taken place either in this church or at the previous location
in downtown St. Charles. Please be sure to put your name on the back of
the photo so it may be returned after the event. You may wish to give
us a copy.
We are also looking for pictures and artifacts of
past events to portray the history of our church. A box has been placed
in the office marked “Items for the 175th Anniversary” in which to
place the items. Vacation Bible School July 16 - 19, 2012 Monday through Thursday from 9:00-11:30am and Thursday, July 19 from 5-6:30pm for 4 year olds

What we believe
The UCC respects freedom of individual conscience, and there are no
"tests of faith" mandatory on our 1.4 million members, but we do honor
the historic testimonies of our spiritual ancestors as they explored
the Bible and applied its insights. The most important of these
testimonies are gathered here. See the UCC's Testimonies of the Faith page for
more information.
