OUR MISSION
Our mission is to create and nurture a family to do God’s work, modeling the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
The First Congregational United Church of Christ in Corning is a source of Christian leadership in the greater Corning Community. Our vision is to demonstrate our faith in Christ in all relationships throughout our individual and corporate life, increase active Christian ministries in the community, and to achieve membership growth.
We share our blessings with the world, the community in which we live and work, and among our members. The distinctive feature of the congregation is that we are a servant people and our members proclaim their choice to act on their faith.
We engage in ministry utilizing a multitude of forms, e.g. hands-on, small group, in-person, using printed materials, and evolving technologies.
We strive to create a worshiping community that praises and gives thanks to God; a worship service that fosters spiritual growth and wholeness, encourages public application of scripture, and invites reflection, prayer, and action in response to the critical and special needs of all participants.
We nurture relationships that are renewing, refreshing, energizing, and vibrant with people of every faith and people seeking faith, welcoming all people.
