Serving Our Community
Community Service
Here are some examples of how we serve our community:
Parkinsons Support Group

Third Monday of Each Month
This is an open support gathering each month for those with or connected to someone with Parkinson's Disease and related conditions, often featuring special speakers and updates along with mutual support. This is a non-religious event.
Global Mission
One Great Hour of Sharing
Financial gifts to One Great Hour of Sharing (OGHS) enable the United Church of Christ to be God’s hands and feet in the world, to help when disaster strikes, to make clean water more accessible and to offer training so that families can be self-sustaining. Gifts to OGHS bring hope in places of despair and heartache. More than 60 percent of the offering supports international development initiatives, including annual support for our missionaries working in healthcare, education and agricultural development. OGHS offerings also assist with refugee and immigration advocacy.

Our church family consistently is in the highest level of giving per capita

We were not only a top-giving per capita OGHS congregation in the Wisconsin Conference in 2020, but also in actual dollars, in the denomination, nationally…number four!
Crop Walk
Each year our church participates in the fall CROP Hunger Walk. This project raises funds for Church World Service which supports programs that assist people who are experiencing food shortages. In this way, we support both worldwide and local food programs.
