We are a community seeking to discover (and rediscover) the renewing ways of Christ.
Since our founding in 1989 (does that make us a Millenial!?) UCC’s mission has been centered on reaching the campus—specifically, the University of Cincinnati—with the good news of Jesus. We believe that college students need the church and that the church needs college students. God has charged us with this joy-filled work to prayerfully and proactively share the gospel with our student neighbors, doing whatever we can to nurture, develop, and resource students (and the adults who love them) to take big steps with Jesus.

UCC HAPPENINGS / Winter Semester 2025
Love the uni:
Between 12.00am Friday, March 28th and 10.30pm Saturday, March 29th, students are coming together to create a space of encounter with God on UC’s campus. This is meant to be a space where all can come with their curiosities, longings, and desire for good news. UCC has made a $ gift to support these student-led efforts, and there are several additional ways to volunteer (ex. being present to pray for students, providing snacks, helping with set-up/tear-down, etc). To discover ways to engage connect with Megan.
Here's a prayer for us this week: Jesus, thank you for inviting us into the student mission story. Show us what part to play and give us your imagination for what you want to do in our context, on UC’s campus. Amen.
Our next campus prayer walk is: Sunday, April 13th
Love our teens:
Youth group for middle-school and high-school meets the first Sunday of every month for dinner, games, and spiritual formation. Can you help meet a very practical need by providing a portion of the meal? We could use some help on Sunday, April 6th. Sign-up here and lend a hand! Perhaps you'd like to get involved with our children and/or teen ministry in a more regular way? Send a note to Shannon to connect and learn more.
Towards justice:
The next UCC Justice Group meeting will take place after worship on Sunday, April 13th. Come be part of this monthly gathering, where we’ll continue to process and lament what’s unfolding in our nation. Come with passion, compassion, and a heart for prayer. No need to RSVP, but if you have questions about the group, please reach out to Randy and/or Jack:
Randy: randywmurphy@gmail.com
Jack: jackdeckenbach@gmail.com
Develop your prayer habits:
Go deeper in contemplative prayer on Saturday mornings through Saturday, April 12th. Meet Daniel Hickman at Rohs Street for a coffee social at 10.30am followed by a 60-minute prayer practice. Let's learn to attend to God's presence in community and silence. Questions: daniel7hickman@gmail.com
