About Us
We are a historic downtown church in the city of Janesville that covenants to:
- Gather as a worshipping congregation with a growing faith, grounded in God, shaped and inspired by Christ, and empowered by the Holy Spirit.
- Promote freedom of expression that reflects our varied cultures and strives to create a safe place where diversity is expressed and honored.
- Be an Open and Affirming and Immigrant Welcoming congregation, encouraging all people to fully participate in the life and ministry of the church.
- Join others in caring for the wider community and share in the ongoing struggle for truth, wholeness, justice, and peace.
Our congregation maintains a covenantal relationship with the United Church of Christ and the Wisconsin Conference of the United Church of Christ.
What does it mean to be an Open & Affirming and Immigrant Welcoming Congregation?
As an Open and Affirming congregation, we welcome and celebrate all persons regardless of their gender identity, expression, orientation, or ability. As an Immigrant Welcoming congregation we welcome all persons regardless of national or ethnic origin. We are a progressive, inclusive, and active church community that takes seriously our call to love extravagantly and to live our faith out loud in our communities.
We are the #LoveandJusticeChurch.
