First Congregational Church of Walpole UCC
ABOUT UCC
The UCC is a church of firsts, a church of extravagant welcome, and a church where "…they may all be one" (John 17:21).
The United Church of Christ (UCC) is a distinct and diverse community of Christians that come together as one church to join faith and action. With over 5,000 churches and nearly one million members across the U.S., the UCC serves God in the co-creation of a just and sustainable world.
Since 1957, the United Church of Christ has been the church of firsts, weaving God’s message of hope and extravagant welcome with action for justice and peace. Together, we live out our faith in ways that effect change in our communities.
A group of church members gather to deliver boxes filled with supplies for our sister church in Chiredzi, Zimbabwe. Materials for clergy, hospitals, clinics, schools including tools, food, clothing and miscellaneous supplies (bicycles, books, music keyboards, sewing machines etc.) are delivered via the shipping container annually.
The church participated in the Old Home Day parade and festivities, an event that occurs every three years, on June 25, 2017. Our float received the Judges Award Blue Ribbon. We participated in displays on the common with a Prayer Board, posters and displays of the activities of the Missions and Action Committee, water for visitors and their pets, a hymn sing, an open house displaying materials telling the history of our church and a chicken barbecue dinner.
