The United Community Church is an international, multi-denominational, multi-cultural,
independent congregation of people united in faith and service to Jesus Christ.
|
|
|
Our membership spans the socio-economic spectrum and
is comprised of approximately one-third permanent residents
and two-thirds persons who have expatriated to Argentina from
all corners of the earth. There are at least seventeen different
nationalities within our church family from numerous faith
backgrounds. Ours is truly a blended family of faith.
Our strongest thread of commonality is the conviction that we
are one family in Jesus Christ, the son of God, our Lord and
Savior. We are also bound by the desire to worship in English.
For the majority, English is the mother tongue, and for many other,
there seems to be the desire to acquire it.

Another way we look at ourselves is as a "Crossroads Church."
We know for the majority of our church family, this is only a
temporary stop in their life journey. Rather than see this as
a negative, we choose to offer those who pass this way a place
to receive nourishment, both in God's love and from the fellowship and community of a loving church family. For those who are willing to make this their church home, away from home, the body of UCC has committed itself to equip them for their next assignment, wherever in the world that might be. We believed that when they go they take a piece of us with them, as well as the love and light of Jesus Christ, which they can then share with another corner of the world.

What we Believe
At the United Community Church we believe God is the Father
Almighty, Jesus Christ is His one and only Son who died for
our sins and was resurrected, and God's Holy Spirit indwells
in all who believe in Him.
Our foundation is based upon John 3:16-18 and Romans 10:9-11
(Following text is the NIV translation)
|
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,
that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world,
but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not
condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already
because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son."
John 3:16-18
|
" …that if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord,"
and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with
your mouth that you confess and are saved.
As the scripture says, "anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame."
Romans 10:9-11
