United Church of Christ-Judd Street is a congregation of United Church of Christ denomination, which was formed from the 1957 merger for the Evangelical and Reformed Church and the Congregational Christian Churches. This means our beliefs are rooted in the Lutheran, Calvinist, Reformed and Congregational traditions. Add to this mix the traditions of our Native Hawaiian, Native American, Asian American, Pacific Islanders, African American and Hispanic American members, and you can see how diverse and rich is our faith. We believe that before anything came to be, GOD existed. God freely chose to create, redeem, and sustain all creation. God has invited us to partner with him in this process. As such, we are called to be stewards of God for this responsibility. God is building a New Earth, where barriers that separate a person from him, family members from one another, nations from each other, insidersfrom outsiders, sacred from secular, and havesfrom have-notsare dissolved. We believe that JESUS was GOD's own Son. He was sent to destroy the power of sin in the world. He came to be with us in our pain, hurt, and fear ; he came to share our joy. He came to forgive us our sins, as we forgive the sins of others. We believe that JESUS is very much alive today in the person of the HOLY SPIRIT. It is the power of God in the midst of our everyday lives. The Spirit inspires and illumines us, challenges and corrects us, helps and heals our hearts and minds and relationships. The Spirit resides in everyone who willingly puts his or her trust in God.
