Welcome to The Congregational Church of Austin, UCC!
If you are looking for a small, friendly church where everyone will quickly know your name...where you'll be loved and accepted regardless of your age, class, race, ethnicity or sexual orientation...where you'll be challenged to reflect on your beliefs, acknowledge your doubts, ask your questions and grow in your faith...where God's desire for compassion, healing, reconciliation, and justice is preached...where you're given the opportunity to put your faith into action through effective volunteer and outreach ministries...then we hope to get to know you as a new friend. No matter who you are or where you are in your journey, you are welcome here.
We are affiliated with the United Church of Christ (UCC), a liberal Christian denomination that promotes spirituality, peace, justice, education and freedom throughout the world. Here you will find a faith community where members accept and encourage spiritual seeking, diversity and fellowship. Serving our immediate community is a large part of our faith, members participate in the local food pantry sponsored by Micah 6, share the responsibility for a freeze night shelter housed in our basement and share space with LifeWorks community outreach program. Join us for worship every Sunday at 11 am and Adult Sunday School at 10 am. Click for directions.

CCA TALENT SHOW IN JUNE
The Annual, Bi-annual, Semi-Annual or Whenever-We-Get-Around-to-It Talent Show is finally scheduled--on a date you won't forget: June 13, 2008. Yes, Friday, the 13th! We will be providing soups, drinks, and desserts before the show. Nodie Murphy will be signing up acts in the Fellowship Hall after church. Remember, the only limit on the performances (besides "good taste") is that they last no longer than THREE minutes! Our antics will benefit a fund to help pay for a new AC condenser for the Huston-Tillotson library. Please reserve this date; it's a great chance to share your gifts, time AND talent.
