:About Broadview Community United Church of Christ (BCUCC)
To take the BROAD VIEW means to be: broad-minded and big-hearted; justice-seeking, peace-loving, and earth-friendly; welcoming of children and youth; and celebrative of our diversity in religious background, sexual orientation, race, age, and abilities.
We are an encompassing church whose "compass" is Jesus' life and teachings.
Together, simply, peacefully we promote reconciliation with God, others, our own best selves.
BCUCC is a progressive Christian faith community extending an "extravagant welcome" out in the wider community. As a congregation proudly affiliated with the United Church of Christ, we believe in staying true to a covenant of unity and loving respect amid diversity. We encourage each person to express one's beliefs freely (giving varied 'testimonies', but requiring no 'test' to prove one's faith; each acting in accord with one's own best perception of God's will).
We are still growing spiritually, still listening to God, not stuck in one place. One of our bright outside banners quotes Gracie Allen: "Never place a period where God has placed a comma. GOD IS STILL SPEAKING!" Another announces that we are "a community of seekers turning hate into love and fear into trust. JOIN US!"

Our congregation is proud to affirm and to fully welcome GLTB families and individuals into the life of our faith community. In fact:
Out is "In" at the UCC:
We welcome OUT pastors in the pulpit,
and are OUTspoken about equal marriage rights,
and we are OUT of patience with intolerance,
and are OUT seeking social justice.Like what you see? Donate securely through PayPal:
