First Congregational United Church of Christ, Albuquerque
We are a welcoming people, a church that reaches out to invite and include persons of every age, tongue, race, gender identity, sexual orientation, and religious background.
We are a people of hope, who reach out with a radical openness to the diversity of God’s gifts. In this spirit, we seek to reconcile with those who have been condemned and injured not only by the Church but also by society and stand with them in their struggle for equality and justice.

FCC boldly states at the beginning of each worship service that “No matter who you are or where you are on your faith and life journey, you are welcome here!” and we mean it. We are a congregation of heterosexual, binary, non-binary, cis-gender, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning people.
WISE Congregation for Mental Health
The objective of the WISE designation is to encourage our congregation to be intentional about welcoming those living with mental health challenges and to expand our inclusion and support of all who are affected by mental health challenges. It is also to support the general health and emotional well-being of our community.
