First United Church of Arvada
No matter who you are or where you are on life's journey, you're
welcome here in our vital, loving community.
We are a United Church of Christ (UCC) congregation—a denomination with
a proud tradition of being on the front lines of striving to lead a compassionate
life and institute positive social change, such as:
- Women in the ministry – UCC was the first denomination to welcome women into the ministry
- Racial equality - one of our first pastors at First United Church of Arvada joined hands with other ministers to protect African-American students from police during racial tensions in Selma, Alabama in the 1960s.
- Social justice at home and abroad – we keep our eyes open to injustice in our neighborhoods and around the world, and do whatever we can to help.
- Equal rights for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered people – we are an open and affirming congregation and welcome lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered people to join our congregation. We believe that the worth of others comes from their uniqueness as individuals.
