Woodmont United Church of Christ is a Christian community located in the Woodmont borough of Milford, CT. We live our communal life with the following Core Values in mind: promoting spiritual growth; creating Scripture-driven, exuberant worship; championing peace and justice for all; embracing diversity, while welcoming all with unconditional love; caring for God’s creation through mission to people and the environment; and seeking the will of a forgiving God.
