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.

Woodmont UCC is a proud member of the United Church of Christ denomination, and we have been an Open and Affirming congregation since 2005.  Most recently, anti-racism work has been a key marker of our church’s ministry, and is prominently featured in our Sunday morning worship services. As we look forward together, we are excited to continue to discern the Spirit’s work in our midst!
