There are a variety of ways you can get involved here at Faith UCC to feed your spiritual interests and gifts. Consider joining a committee, or participating in their projects!

Green Team – At Faith we care deeply about being good stewards of the Earth which God created. We understand caring for our planet is more important right now than ever before. The Green Team is a group of church members who are dedicated to learning about and practicing creation care. Some things the Green Team has done: planted trees and plants around the church grounds; purchased and gave away reusable bags; updated all of the lightbulbs throughout the building; gave away free radon test kits; provided education on the importance of composting and so much more!

The Green team currently meets the first Tuesday of the month at 4:30 p.m.

Outreach – Our congregation extends beyond the building’s walls. Be believe to live in the way of Jesus is to love and serve our neighbors. We are always seeking out ways to be involved with the community and make Muscatine, America, and the world a more loving place, where everyone’s needs are met. Outreach is how we live out our believe that all people are worthy of love, dignity, and respect. Some things the Outreach committee does: collect donations which sponsors a room at MCSA; monthly drives for items needed at MCSA; Muscatine’s Bag of Blessings program; build days with Sleep in Heavenly Peace; serving at the Emmaus Café; drives for donations toward Laundry Love, Veterans, Domestic Violence Shelter, CROP Walk, and more.

The Outreach committee meets monthly.

Worship Committee – Worship is the center of our lives at Faith UCC. Our worship committee works with Pastor to plan worship and ensure we consistently provide creative, meaningful, and relevant worship services centered on God. 

The Worship committee meets on the first Monday of the month at 4:30 p.m.

Open and Affirming (ONA) – As a congregation of the United Church of Christ, which was the first denomination to openly proclaim God’s love for ALL people, we at Faith are glad to be a present of acceptance and belonging in Muscatine for ALL people. Our ONA committee was formed in 2019 and we work to spread the word of God’s love. Some of the things our ONA committee has done: host Inherent Worth workshops; sponsored Crossroads Halloween Dances; attended Iowa City’s Pride Festival; held documentary viewings and discussion to educate the community in partnership with Muscatine’s LGBTQIA+ Equality Coalition, and so much more!

The ONA committee meets on the first Thursday of the month at 7:15 p.m. after adult forum.

Congregational Care Team – Pastor loves to visit with people, but caring for our congregation is truly the work of the community. This team meets quarterly with Pastor to ensure all members and friends know and feel they are loved. This includes sending cards, making phone calls, visiting with others, gathering for meals, meal drop offs, and more. If compassion and care are your gifts, this is the team for you!

This team meets in March, June, September, and December.
