PROUD TO BE A DOWNTOWN CHURCH!
As a church in downtown Orrville, Ohio, we strive to make our discipleship integral to the community's life, working to "build community in Christ".
We cooperate in mission with other Orrville churches locally and with U.C.C. churches round the world.
ABOUT OUR CHURCH
Christians are baptized into communion with Christ.
To be in communion with Christ is to be welcomed into the full life of Christ’s church.
As an Open and Affirming congregation, this welcome is without regard to race, gender, economic status, sexual orientation, gender expression or identity, social status, or any other life circumstance.
Children's and Youth Ministries
Children and youth play an important part in the life of Christ Church and we value their participation both inside and outside of worship. We strive to help our kids take steps to owning their faith by encouraging them to spend time with God, use their gifts, spend time with others, and share their story.

This month's special offerings:
Christ Church Preschool
Christ Church Preschool has been nurturing and caring for the hearts and minds of little ones in Orrville, Ohio for over 35 years. With care and dedication, our goal is to provide a program of successive experiences whereby each child will have the opportunity to grow and develop socially, emotionally, physically, intellectually and creatively at their own pace.
Strengthen the Church
The Strengthen the Church (STC) Offering reflects the shared commitment of people across the United Church of Christ to cooperatively build up the UCC. Conferences and the national setting equally share the gifts given by members and friends through their local congregations. The funds raised support leadership development, new churches, youth ministry, and innovation in existing congregations.
