Why Rockville United Church?
"...now we are doing more than adding words to
our description; the LGBT committee is all about outreach; that
says to me, all about justice-all about living Christianity. As
a heterosexual, I am proud to be a member of a congregation that
focuses on what matters and welcomes and honors everyone regardless
of sexual orientation."
C. S.
"I am proud and happy to be a part of a church
that is Open and Affirming/More Light. In the Bible we read that
God created all people in God's image. It is up to us as believers
to show God's love and hospitality to all people. I feel strongly
we are doing God's work as we reach out to all."
B. P.
"I am once again awed and thankful to be a part
of such a wonderful group of people...I feel blessed to have found
RUC and privileged to call it my spiritual home now and want to
thank all of you for 'walking the walk and living the talk'."
N.D.
"I really believe with all my heart that RUC is
home to true Christians- the way Christ truly wanted us to live."
A.P.
"There are a lot of folks out there searching
for what we have - a warm giving community where everyone is welcome
and everyone is treated the same...as a spiritual seeker. I hope
they come!"
D.R.
"RUC is important to me because it is a welcoming
place where we can come together to worship God and serve our community.
The designation as a More Light (Presbyterian) and Open and Affirming
(United Church of Christ) congregation confirms in words to the
outside world what I believe in my heart. We are all God's children
and have so much to give to each other and learn from one another
in Christian love and service. I am grateful for the involvement
and continuing growth over the 40 plus years of my membership."
P.A.
