Friedens (Peace) United Church of Christ strives to be a church that is steep in deeds, not in creeds! We want an Outreach oriented congregation with a special mind to those “Jesus called the least of these” in our local community, United Church of Christ Missions as well as the world at large. Listed below are several of the Outreach opportunities we are involved with. Instead of getting involved in the latest political or religious debate regarding theological differences, we chose to simply go about the business of Matthew 25 which is quite simply, taking care of the least of these, and in doing so, we are building God’s Kingdom here on earth (thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven!)

  Each week the congregation is ask to consider giving $1.00 to the EAT'S Foundation to support their mission to serve the hungry of Guadalupe and surrounding counties.
     
• Child Protective Services Rainbow Room:
