Peace United Church of Christ

Our Invitation To All

As members of Peace United Church of Christ, of Rochester, Minnesota, we are of diverse origins and opinions. We honor this diversity. We accept the teachings of the Bible as the primary resource of our faith, acknowledging various interpretations, and believing that the message of Jesus Christ is one of mercy, justice, and compassion.

Out of our diversity and with respect for each other we believe that all people are children of God, and that we are called upon to be merciful, just and loving. Following the example of our Lord, Jesus Christ, we welcome all to share in our family of faith. Our welcome is to all people of every race, nationality, age, marital status, gender, economic status, sexual orientation and mental or physical ability.

We strive to be open and sensitive to all people. Therefore, we invite all who seek God’s guidance to join our faith community and share fully in our church’s life and all its opportunities. We pray for courage, blessing and God’s unifying love as we seek to respond to God’s call.
