Please Note: While the United Church of Christ is not an official endorser of the Women's March on Washington, we believe that we are called to be the church in every time and place, including such a time as this, a time of great challenge and importance for our communities, our nation and our world. As members of the United Church of Christ, we follow our call to love our God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength; and our neighbor as ourselves. United in Christ’s love and united in spirit, we lift up a vision of a just world for all, and inspired by God’s grace, we welcome all, love all and seek justice for all.
