About
Storrs Congregational Church
Our Mission
Conveniently located on the campus of the University of Connecticut, the Storrs Congregational Church,
as a member of the United Church of
Christ, seeks to make traditional Christian
beliefs and values relevant to the experience of students, faculty, and
townspeople. We are committed to unity without requiring uniformity. Our trained
ministers provide an encouraging presence and caring counsel. This church is
open
and affirming to every person who desires a welcoming place for worship,
fellowship, and outreach. Students are encouraged and welcome to use the lounge
in our Parish House as a quiet place to
study.
Our Covenant
We
are united in striving to know the will of God as taught in the Holy Scriptures,
and in our purpose to walk in the ways of the Lord, made known or to be made
known to us. We hold it to be the
mission of the Church of Christ to proclaim the gospel to all people,
exalting the worship of the one true God and laboring for the progress of
knowledge, the promotion of justice, the reign of peace, and the realization of
human fellowship. Depending, as did our ancestors, upon the continued guidance of
the Holy Spirit to lead us into all truth, we work and pray for the transformation of the
world into the kingdom of God; and we look with faith for the
triumph of righteousness and the life everlasting.
