Open and Affriming
We, The Seaside United Church of Christ, welcome all who come in search of God’s presence in their lives. We declare ourselves to be an Open and Affirming Congregation. We welcome and encourage the active involvement of people of every race, color, nationality, economic status, sexual orientation, family structure, marital status, age, and physical or mental ability.
We support all relationships based in love, mutuality, and respect. We believe that all persons are loved equally by God, and recognize that diversity is a source of enrichment for our life together. We extend, without reservation, an invitation to join in the life of the Church, including membership, leadership and employment.
We are a Just Peace Congregaton
Grounded in UCC polity and covenantal theology, the Just Peace Pronouncement and resulting in Church movement has at its core a call to alleviate systemic injustice of all kinds using non-violence, challenging us to explore the intersection between peace and justice, offering to the world the prophetic message, grounded in the hope of reconciliation in Jesus, that “Peace is possible!” Read or download the Just Peace Church Handbook.
Land Acknowledgement
The Maine Conference United Church of Christ recognizes and honors the current nations of the Wabanaki Confederacy – the Maliseet, the Passamaquoddy, the Penobscot, the Mi’kmaq – and their ancestor, who have stewarded this land throughout the generations.
We respect the traditional values of the Wabanaki nations, affirm their inherent sovereignty in this territory we now call Maine, and support their efforts for land and water protection and restoration, and for cultural healing and recovery.
“Faith is the assurance of things hoped for,
the conviction of things not seen.”
— Hebrews 11:1
