Welcome Statement

We are First Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Covington, KY.  The doors to this church are open to y’all. When we say y’all, we mean ALL regardless of race, ethnicity, creed, nationality, sexual orientation, gender identity/expression, socio-economic status, housing status, physical abilities, age, relationship status or any other designation of individuals who may have known the pain of exclusion from the church and society.  God’s love and grace are in this place and is available to everyone regardless of where you are on your spiritual journey.

We declare ourselves to be an Open and Affirming congregation, professing that all people are God’s children and we believe in the separation of church and hate.  You are welcome to full inclusion in the life of the church including leadership, ministry, fellowship, worship, ordinances of communion and baptism, marriage and ordination with all the rights, responsibilities and blessings of participation in our church family.  In our faith community, we strive to fulfill our mission of welcoming wholly, loving authentically and sharing God’s grace abundantly.  Everyone has a seat at God’s Table.
