Our Mission

What We Believe & What it Means

FCC Houston respects the conscience of each believer and does not require any creeds or confessions for membership. FCC is firmly rooted in Christian tradition which has several core beliefs.

FCC adopted this mission statement many years ago and it still guides the congregation and the life of the church.

THE MISSION OF THE FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH OF HOUSTON IS

To welcome all into an inclusive community
To seek to follow Jesus’ teachings
To search for more truth and light
To support one another on our faith journeys
To strive for peace and justice

To welcome all into an inclusive community

At FCC, there is no religious test for membership or a creed that one must accept. Whoever you are and wherever you are on life’s journey you will be warmly welcomed.

To seek to follow Jesus’ teachings

FCC is a Christian Church. We strongly believe that the life of Jesus is a source of inspiration and spirituality that speaks to each member in a unique way.

To search for more truth and light

FCC believes that a life well-lived involves a search for authenticity and connection with others. We align with our Pilgrim and Puritan ancestors in pursuit of a world informed by – and governed by – faith and community.

To support one another on our faith journeys

At FCC pursuit of spiritual growth is a personal journey that has many pathways. We accept this diversity and support each member in finding and following their own pathway.

To strive for peace and justice

FCC firmly believes that part of our work as a Christian community is to speak out against practices that discriminate against others because of their place of origin, appearance, beliefs, or sexuality.
