Our Mission

In the name of God and Jesus Christ, a congregation of the United Church of Christ, we declare this Church to be open and welcoming to all seekers to know and worship God. As a congregation of faith, we take seriously the biblical call to love God and our neighbors as we love ourselves. We celebrate the variety of our cultures, race, ages and different abilities.

No matter who you are, or where you are in life’s journey, you are welcome here. We are an Open & Affirming congregation.

Services at 9:30am on Sundays

Our close-knit and caring community can best be described by this WELCOME to DALTON video which was created by a young man raised here, Kyle Dempsey, founder of Trout and Coffee Productions.

And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love.

The fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

Sunday School resumes on Sunday, September 14th! Please join us for worship at 9:30 followed by a brunch at 10:30.

The goal of our Sunday School program is to provide an engaging learning experience incorporating stories, songs, activities and fellowship. The program is open to all children Kindergarten through 8th grade. High school students are welcome to join us as helpers. We have recently learned about using prayer to ask for help for ourselves and others, choosing our words carefully, appreciating our beautiful world, and finding out how Christians are like pumpkins! Plans for the Advent & Christmas season including stories,crafts and skits are under development. As a congregation, we rejoice to once again have the energy, insight and laughter of children among us. Sunday School takes place from 9:45 to 10:30 a.m. during our morning worship time, which begins at 9:30.
