Welcome From the New Senior Minister - Paul Shupe

Paul_Shupe

 

Building on foundations that are nearly two centuries old, Hancock United Church of Christ is today a vibrant community gathered to worship God, who we believe still speaks, and who calls us engage in:

 

Worship that is authentic, relevant and thoughtful. Community that welcomes all regardless of age, race, gender, sexual orientation, economic status or physical and mental ability, finding joy in diversity. Compassion for the poor and powerless, peacemaking for those in conflict, caring for the natural world, and advocating justice for all of God’s people. Life-long Learning about our faith, our world, cultures and traditions different from our own, learning based in mutual respect, reason, and curiosity.

 

As a congregation of the United Church of Christ, we honor the freedom and responsibility of the individual and the congregation to search and to believe in harmony with conscience, as well as the obligation to remain in respectful relationship with other individuals within our congregation and our partner congregations within the United Church of Christ and the wider ecumenical community.


We welcome seekers and searchers of all ages, backgrounds and traditions, inviting all to join us along the path of faithfulness to God. We welcome you!
