What We Believe

Preamble to the Constitution of the United Church of Christ of Robesonia

The United Church of Christ of Robesonia acknowledges as its sole Head, Jesus Christ, Son of God and Savior.  It acknowledges as kindred in Christ all who share in this confession.  It looks to the Word of God in the Scriptures, and to the presence and power of the Holy Spirit, to prosper its creative and redemptive work in the world.  It claims as its own the faith of the historic Church expressed in the ancient creeds and reclaimed in the basic insights of the Protestant Reformers.  It affirms the responsibility of the Church in each generation to make this faith its own in reality of worship, in honesty of thought and expression, and in purity of heart before God.  In accordance with the teaching of our Lord and the practice prevailing among evangelical Christians, it recognizes two sacraments:  Baptism and the Lord’s Supper or Holy Communion.

Our Purpose

The avowed purpose and mission of this Church is to share God’s word and love with all, worship God, preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, celebrate the Sacraments, provide a home for spiritual growth and nurture; to use our individual talents to build up the Body of Christ, rendering loving and joyful service toward our fellow humankind, especially to those in need, giving witness to God’s grace in both word and deed; to realize Christian Fellowship and Unity within this Church and the Church Universal; and to strive for righteousness, justice, and peace.
