About Us
If your idea of what a church ought to be is open
minded, warm hearted, and bright spirited, then we invite you to
worship at Niles Congregational Church.
Here, we take God seriously, and try to take ourselves
less seriously.
Here, we bring our minds, as well as our hearts
and souls, to knowing the Bible. Our questions are as important
as the answer we find together.
Here, children learn and grow, adults find good
friends, and the love of Christ is shared with all.
We have an outstanding Choir,
Youth Programs, and Sunday
School.
We are an Open and Affirming
(ONA) Congregation: We welcome and accept all people regardless
of race, sex, nationality, physical ability, marital status, mental
ability, economic status, or sexual orientation.
We don't think that Christianity is about believing
unbelievable stuff about God or Jesus or the Bible. It's about a
lifelong journey of relationship with God that grows and changes
as we do.
We recognize that we have been given a fantastic
and diverse world within which to live, work and play and have a
responsibility to care for it. We enjoy our relationships with faithful
persons of other religious persuasions and seek to work cooperatively
with all to make our communities better places.
So check out our site and see that we are serious
about our faith, our service, and our fun together. Then come and
share worship with us any Sunday at 10:00 a.m.
No matter who you are, or where you are on life’s
journey, you’re welcome here.
Peace,
Jeffrey
