We Are a Church...
That knows God as all-loving and inclusive. Where everyone is welcomed and accepted as they are. Where your mind is nourished as much as your soul. Where Jesus the healer meets Jesus the revolutionary. Where together we grow a just and peaceful world.
We give an enthusiastic welcome to all who wish to join us on our exciting venture of faith development and service. In the Spirit of Jesus, we affirm the dignity and worth of every person regardless of social or economic condition, race, ethnicity, physical or mental abilities, age, gender, marital status, family structure, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, theological background or political ideology. We offer any and all persons the opportunity to share in every aspect of church life. Welcome!
Our History
The Mashpee Congregational Church is almost at the end of its teenage years! Our fellowship was founded in 2007. It was the first church established by our denomination (the United Church of Christ) in over 50 years on Cape Cod. Our founding pastor? The Rev. Dr. James Scovil, a dynamic, energetic man, who set a great foundation for the energy and growth we are now experiencing.
Our Church Community
An “expert in the law” came to Jesus and basically asked, “After you dust it all away, what really matters?” Jesus answered by saying, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart… and your neighbor as (you love) yourself.” He then offered something absolutely radical. He said, “In this…” (in the act of loving God, neighbor and self) “ALL the law and the prophets are satisfied.”
This is what we are about at Mashpee Congregational: RELATIONSHIPS.
