Welcome to
Lynnhaven Colony
Congregational CHURCH,
United Church of Christ
Long name, short meaning:
We welcome everyone. Seriously.
About us
No matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome here. We believe in extravagant welcome. This is why we insist that God’s communion table is open, not closed, and God’s gift and claim in baptism are irrevocable. We advocate justice for all. We work with - not against - people of other faiths. Why? Because God is still speaking.

We are Open and Affirming
With an understanding that we are all uniquely created in the image of God, we welcome and affirm into our community people of any age, race, culture, ethnicity, background, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, and ability.

SPIRITUAL GROWTH
At LCCC, we encourage everyone to ask the hard questions. We believe this is vital for a person to grow spiritually. That is why we have a Sunday 11:15 am adult class which focuses on various topics, Sunday morning classes for children and teens, monthly Progressive Pints meetings at a local brewery, and various special events. Check our Facebook page.
For daily devotionals, you may like to visit UCC Stillspeaking Devotions.
Service
​
Serving others in the church, community, and further away helps us to better connect with one another and God. It is through service that we follow Jesus' example of welcoming those without a home, feeding those without food, and clothing those without clothes. Through service we have built relationships with PIN Ministries, JCOC, IRC, CCC and orphanages in Haiti.
Upcoming
Events
Throughout the year, we have a variety of fellowship, study, and service events. See our "Events" page for a listing of regular events, and visit our Facebook page for updated event information.
