Welcome to the United Church of Christ of Toms River
We are an Open and Affirming congregation, which means we affirm all people are equally loved by God, regardless of whom one loves or how one identifies. As an all-inclusive congregation, we encourage any member of the LGBTQ+ community looking for a church family to join our community of faith. We extend an open-arms welcome to all to participate in all aspects of life in our faith community, including but not limited to: worship, sacraments, leadership, all ministry responsibilities, and the blessings that are so richly abundant in our community.
The invitation is open to everyone, regardless of marital status, age, gender, sexual orientation, mental and physical ability, race, ethnicity, or socioeconomic background.
