First Congregational Church of Alameda

Founded in 1879, First Congregational Church of Alameda (FCCA) is a local congregation in the United Church of Christ.

Our mission is to welcome all into an intentionally inclusive fellowship where we strengthen our personal relationships with God. Through the teaching of Jesus and in an atmosphere of love, we nurture, support and challenge one another and are empowered to advance our strong tradition of social consciousness and service.

As progressive Christians, we believe that the Spirit is still moving, calling us to be a community that speaks and responds to the changing needs and concerns of the world around us.

As a faith community that follows the teachings and example of Jesus, we are committed to creating a more inclusive community – one that affirms and defends the civil and human rights of every person or group, especially those who face oppression based on race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, social economic status, spiritual path or affiliation, immigration status, or mental or physical ability.
