Welcome

to First Congregational United Church of Christ in Eagle River, Wisconsin.  We are a family of faith located in the beautiful Northwoods of northern Wisconsin, and are an open community of Christians who welcome you  --

-- wherever you are on life's journey!

During the summer of 2008, we are renovating our sanctuary, fellowship hall & kitchen.  Remember the following worship times:

The Stable Animals Get Ready for the Christmas Pageant   and  The Easter Sanctuary

 Family-friendly worship is at the center of our life together.  

We hold two worship services each Sunday morning.  During this summer, our services will be at Gaffney-Busha across the street while our sanctuary is being renovated.  Join us!!  Times for worship during the summer are 7:30 a.m. and 9 a.m.

During the school year, there is Sunday School for children and youth between the worship services.   

From young to old, there is a place for you in this faith fellowship....

The Youth lead worship on Earth Day Sunday.

What's an "online community?" Frankly, we're not quite sure, but we're hoping you can show us.

One dictionary defines "community" as "sharing, participation, fellowship." That works for us. Community is a place where you can find relationships. But it's more than that. It's a place where people can build together, create together, grow together. Community isn’t just a place to talk—though you'll discover soon enough that in the United Church of Christ we love to talk!

No, community is more than that. It's an experience of relationship. So our community, like any other, is incomplete without the participation of its members. As an experiment in online community, i.UCC will grow and change in time as its members build it together. That's why we can't tell you yet exactly what i.UCC will be in the future. That depends partly on you—if you want to walk with us for awhile as you continue your own spiritual journey.
