What we believe

No matter who you are, or where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome here. 
The McFarland United Church of Christ is open and affirming to people of all ages, races, physical and mental abilities, economic positions, religious backgrounds, sexual orientations and gender identities.  We celebrate and share God's unconditional love by offering the opportunity for membership, fellowship and leadership to everyone.

McFarland UCC is a congregation of the United Church of Christ (the UCC).   Our faith is 2000 years old.  Our thinking is not.  We claim the faith of the historic Church expressed in the ancient creeds and reclaimed in the basic insights of the Protestant Reformers.  These are testimonies of faith – but not tests of faith.  We believe that it is the responsibility of the Church in each generation to make the faith its own.

Some of the core values of the UCC are:
  • Continuing Testament
  • Extravagant Welcome
  • Changing Lives

We believe it is our responsibility to help make real the extravagant promises of God here and now.
